The present work comprises the genesis of the prison system, categorizing the art of punishing certain individuals, who are considered as threats to society, suffering criminal sanctions and social exclusion. This study aims to understand the consequences of incarceration in the family context of individuals deprived of liberty, identifying the main demands and challenges faced by the relatives of prisoners and former prisoners. Moreover, it seeks to recognize the importance of the role of the family in the prison context, from monitoring criminal execution to the interface of the arrested family member, with the reality outside the prison, highlighting the ability to organize socially in the dimension of the struggle for the guarantee and effectiveness of rights. The research aims to investigate the main functions performed by the Association of Family and Friends of prisoners and graduates of the State of Rio de Janeiro - AFAPERJ, a social support network that provides social assistance services to support and welcome these families.
