A atuação profissional do pedagogo no Centro de Referência Especializado de Assistência Social (CREAS)

Abstract

This academic article aims to understand the performance of the Pedagogue in the scope of Social Assistance inserted in the Specialized Reference Center for Social Assistance in the state of Paraíba. To better develop the theme, we will follow the paths of Social Pedagogy, which is a reflection to understand the role of the educator in Social Assistance - CREAS. The choice of theme is justified because it perceives the importance of the formation of Pedagogues around Social Pedagogy. As a theoretical foundation, we support the research on the contributions of Saviani (2013) Paula (2014) Souza, et al (2014), Machado, Rodrigues and Severo (2014), PNAS (2004), LOAS (2003) (2011), for describing the advances of their research in the field of education and Social Pedagogy. As a methodological support, we used qualitative research. It is also emphasized that throughout the investigative work we perceive the importance of discussing the Pedagogue's spaces of action beyond the educational scopes.
