Abstract

This article is based on the discussion of the Financial Assistance Program Family, in order to demonstrate how the federal government is managing the scope of social programs and whether they have given any positive results for the country. For that, we made bibliographic surveys the authors have discussed the case, and also seek information in government records that deal with the subject. Thus, it may be noted that the results of the Financial Assistance Program Family, despite what some say, have shown very positive situations under the breaking aspect of the intergenerational cycle of poverty with the poor and extremely poor families, including giving them the opportunities for growth and material development and social inclusion, thus achieving improved quality of life and better conditions of survival, which are the focus of social programs. © 2016, Universidade de Taubate.
