Abstract
This article is a narrative of the experiences of psychology professionals working in the LGBT Citizenship Centers of the Rio without Homophobia Programme, in the period in which this program and its Citizenship Centers were fully active and present in different parts of the state of Rio de Janeiro. This program is linked to the Superintendence of Individual, Collective and Diffuse Rights of the Department of Social Assistance and Human Rights of the state of Rio de Janeiro (SUPERDir/SEASDH) and has as general objectives the combat against homo, lesbo, bi and transphobia, as well as the promotion of LGBT citizenship. From a few cases we monitored, we discussed possibilities for intervention that were placed alongside the movement to increase the potency of life of the users of the service, mainly by the proposal of interdisciplinary interventions and articulations with the context of demand and/or violation. In this way, we reiterate the importance of constructing the field of psi practices through a networked work based on issues related to Human Rights, social movement and public policies.
