Estratégias de promoção de saúde para a população População LGBTQIAPN+: um relato de experiência do grupo de apoio da unidade docente assistencial/ Ufal

Abstract

This work consists of an experience report that aims to analyze the LGBTQIAPN+ support group at the Professor Gilberto de Macedo Teaching Assistance Unit (UDA), located in Maceió (AL), as a strategy to promote mental health for the LGBTQIAPN+ population. Additionally, we seek to investigate how the group contributes to the development of support networks aimed at confronting violence and combating the silencing experienced by these users, in addition to examining how LGBTQIAPN+phobia continues to be present in the UDA, even with the existence of the group. In this context, we highlight the need to implement continuous practices of Permanent Health Education to improve the care provided by professionals to this population, as well as the implementation of the National Comprehensive Health Policy for the LGBTQIAPN+ Population through the construction of an effective care network aimed at this population in the Unit. Thus, the group is configured as a safe and inclusive space for sharing experiences and strengthening bonds, consolidating itself as a fundamental strategy for confronting and overcoming prejudices experienced.
