Diagnóstico situacional da violência contra crianças e adolescentes com deficiência em três instituições do Rio de Janeiro

Abstract

We present a situational diagnostic about violence against children and adolescent with disability, which were done in three referenced institutions in Rio de Janeiro, from federal and municipal level and from the third sector, based in 53 case studies. This article considered a recent theoretical study of violence in the disability field and it demonstrates that this subject is embryonic in Brazil and Latin American. The relevance of this study is in the description we did of the diversity and richness of the recent forms of assistance in the disability field. It was analyzed how these institutions are being challenged to face violence and rights violation and to build protection strategies. Not only violence, but the poverty is another problem which is pointed out to these organizations. We concluded that when disability is associated to forms of violence and rights violation these institutions have developed social benefits and a social network in order to change disability people s quality of life. The central challenge is to promote change of cumulative disadvantages, to enhance capacities and to offer care and protection to disabled people and their families.
