Abstract: This survey aimed to bring out reflections regarding situations of violence in the lives of women who were living on the streets in the city of São Paulo, Brazil.

“…For participants, abstaining from alcohol contributes to positive attitudes in self-care, such as eating, bathing, sleeping, working, preventing oneself. Studies carried out with HP on the use of alcohol and other drugs indicate that this behavior is an alternative for street survival (7,(35)(36)(37) . The words "good relations" were the third most evoked, revealing the need to avoid confusion, not to fight, know what to see and what to speak on the streets, as well as to define who to hang around with, thus protecting themselves from situations of violence and/or trouble.…”

“…Although they refer to this word, most use drugs, especially alcohol (74%). In this sense, there is self-care that is based on abstaining from drugs as a positive strategy and there is self-care that is anchored in using drugs as a tool to face the street and its difficulties and facilitate socialization (7,36) . The word "work" (F = 36; MOE = 3.583) is important, and the characterization data indicate that 88% of the 122 HP that composed this study were engaged in paid activity.…”

“…As pesquisas destacam que a rua se configura como um espaço masculino, que dá continuidade ao modelo patriarcal. Mas ressaltam que as mulheres em situação de rua, mesmo com fortes opressões, conquistam e ocupam seu espaço, sendo protagonistas de suas próprias vidas (Alves, 2013;Rodrigues, 2009;Rosa, & Brêtas, 2015). Pesquisadores destacam que não há, nas políticas públicas brasileiras, ações direcionadas às especificidades das mulheres nas ruas, apontando a necessidade de estratégias singulares e a construção intersetorial de cuidado entre políticas públicas de mulheres e de pessoas em situação de rua (Alves, 2013;Rosa, & Brêtas, 2015;Santos, 2014).…”

“…A diferenciação entre os indivíduos em uma sociedade pode ser tamanha, a ponto de criar 'espécies' distintas de indivíduos que se sentem livres para praticar atos violentos contra aqueles que são considerados diferentes do padrão social aceito como 'normal' (Buarque, 1993;Santana & Castelar, 2014). A violência praticada contra essas pessoas, aliás, é um dos aspectos mais marcantes na vida delas, ocorrendo de todas as formas: violência física, agressões verbais, abusos de poder, violência silenciosa (Frangella, 2004;Escorel, 1999;Rosa & Brêtas, 2015) e variados tipos de preconceito, entre eles o de gênero e de raça (Kunz, 2012).…”

“…A memória é, simultaneamente, acúmulo e perda, arquivo e restos, lembrança e esquecimento" (p. 20). Sendo a memória algo que os próprios indivíduos constroem continuamente a partir de suas relações sociais (Gondar, 2016), não foram raras as histórias familiares contadas ao longo da experiência turística, confirmando a fragilidade que cerca essa população quando se trata dos vínculos familiares rompidos (Rosa & Brêtas, 2015;Escorel, 1999;Castel, 2009). Ainda assim, as memórias suscitadas por meio das visitas pareceram ter agido naqueles momentos como forma de [re]encontro com um lugar 'confortável' para os usuários.…”
