“…Nas relações de trabalho estabelecidas neste ambiente também se percebe a relação hierárquica entre os coordenadores e internos, sendo os primeiros os superiores, que sabem e determinam o caminho a ser percorrido e os internos, os subordinados, que devem ser submetidos à norma e a atividade proposta, mesmo que essa se distancie de sua realidade (experiências prévias de trabalho, formação, hábitos de vida e familiares, características do território em que viviam). Desconsidera-se dessa forma, a história de vida cada um e suas características pessoais (Castrillón Valderrutén, 2008).…”

A internação prolongada de usuários de drogas em Comunidades Terapêuticas (CT) tem se tornado política pública. O objetivo deste estudo foi conhecer e analisar o funcionamento cotidiano de uma CT, considerando as atividades desenvolvidas, as relações estabelecidas e o processo de intervenção. Foram realizadas cinco visitas a uma CT, sendo estas registradas em caderno de campo. As anotações foram analisadas buscando-se compreender características discursivas do funcionamento destas e do impacto na subjetividade. As atividades desenvolvidas eram laborterapia e atividades grupais, sendo explorada a crença religiosa cristã. As relações eram hierarquizadas, com uso de estratégias de controle, culpabilização e confrontação. As atividades posicionavam os usuários como impulsivos, dependentes e desviantes. Não era levada em consideração a influência, nas trajetórias de vida, do pouco acesso aos bens de consumo e de cidadania, sendo a problemáti -ca da droga tratada apenas como algo interno, justificando as tentativas para reconstruir a identidade do usuário. Abstract Keywords Therapeutic Community Drug Use HospitalizationProlonged hospitalization of drug users in Therapeutic Communities (TC) has become a public policy in Brazil. The aim of this study was to understand and analyze the functioning of a TC, considering the activities carried out there, the relationships established and the intervention process. Five visits to a TC were carried out. These visits were registered in a field diary. The notes were analyzed seeking to understand discursive features of the functioning of the TC and the impact of its functioning on the subjectivity of the users. The activities were labor therapy and group activities, and the Christian religious believes were explored. Relations were hierarchical, using strategies of control, confrontation and construction of guilt. Activities positioned the users as impulsive, addicts and deviants. The influence of the limited access to consumer goods and citizenship rights in the life trajectories of the users were not taken into consideration. Their problems with drugs were treated only as something internal, creating only strategies towards reconstructing the user's identity.Capellato Melo, Mariane & Mendonça Corradi-Webster, Clarissa (2016). Análise do funcionamento de comunidade terapêutica para usuários de drogas. Athenea Digital, 16(3), 379-399. http://dx.doi.org/10.5565/rev/athenea.2012 Introdução O uso de drogas constitui-se como um fenômeno presente ao longo da história (Torcato, 2014). Entretanto, sentidos negativos sobre este uso (danoso, imoral, fraqueza) vêm fundamentando práticas combativas, aparadas pelos discursos moral, religioso e o psiquiátrico asilar. Com estes discursos, pessoas que fazem determinados usos de drogas foram sendo consideradas desviantes da norma, havendo um processo de exclusão social e de ausência de cuidados que as atingem continuamente, principalmente as populações de periferia, pobres e negras (Fernandes & Fuzinatto, 2012; Ministério da Saúde, 379

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to present a case study of a programme aimed at raising standards of care and levels of professionalism in private, drug-free therapeutic communities (TCs) in Santa Catarina, Brazil. Design/methodology/approach The paper describes the Reviver intervention in detail and draws on subjective insights collected during its implementation. Findings Over 100 TCs applied to the Reviver project, of which 83 qualified to participate. The large majority of TCs were found to combine community-as-method, religious worship and abstinence in their treatment model. Research limitations/implications The paper highlights the significant role religious organisations have in the treating substance dependency in Brazil and raises ethical and practical questions regarding the incorporation of religious TCs into mainstream public mental health provision. Practical implications The paper outlines the qualification process, control systems and monitoring procedures employed by the Reviver project. Originality/value The paper attends to the gap in English language publications regarding TCs in Brazil and raises important questions regarding the role of religion, faith and spirituality in the treatment of substance dependency.
