Abstract
To think of the Family is to reflect the complexity inherent in this relational system. Understanding the abusive drug user's family implies considerations about social situations that transcend family relationships and that directly affect the same context. It has been identified that there are laws, resolutions and regulations that indicate the State's concern to help families who experience suffering due to the use of drugs by a relative, be it brother, husband, father, mother, etc. Faced with subjective inquiries about the roles of the State and the family, the objective of this study was to analyze how family experiences are considered with an abusive user member of drugs by the family itself and by professional social workers and psychologists, direct operators of the devices of the Unified Health System and the Single System of Social Assistance. A non-profit institution, CAFVIDA was created in the period of the research, created to exclusively serve families of users of alcohol and abusive drugs and dependent chemists. The present study is qualitative, descriptive and exploratory in character. All the work was done in the city of Salvador, and sought the natural environment of the workers and residents of this capital. Data collection was done through a semi-structured interview, which was recorded and later transcribed. The results validated the perception of policies that seek to contemplate the families that experience the problem and that they contrast with the representations of the direct service operators. It also revealed the contradictory perception of the family itself about the context that it experiences.
