This paper discusses efforts to establish places for listening to young people in social vulnerability situations. To this end, two types of intervention were created; they were developed at individual and group scope, and respectively named “papo reto” (straightforward conversation) and “tá na roda” (let’s share). Proposals such as these allow for progress towards the establishment of tools that are an alternative to classical settings, extending the psychoanalytic method’s contributions to health, education and culture.
