	1st [05/21/2015]	2nd [06/01/2015]	3rd [06/15/2015]	4th [07/06/2016]
Opening of the session	Welcome, participation acknowledgement, introduction of the researchers, and purpose of the research.	Synthesis of the previous session and explanation of the purpose of the new one. We stress that, in the second session, it was necessary to start by resuming the combinations and information provided in the first one, due to the participation of new members, which at that moment also signed the informed consent form.
Introduction of the participants among themselves	The dynamic was conducted in pairs, in which the participants introduced the colleague alongside.	There was no need to resume the introduction, since the participants who integrated the group in the second session were managers, therefore they knew the other participants and were known by them. Everyone remained with badges identifying their names, and the colors indicated the different services.
Explanation about the dynamic of the participatory discussion	Information about the development of the session and theme guides
Establishment of the setting	In the first session, aspects related to logistics and dynamic of the sessions were agreed, such as punctuality, closing time, parallel conversations, use of electronic equipment. We highlighted the commitment of the participants and coordination team with the confidentiality of the research. Finally, the signature of the informed consent form. In the other sessions, this agreement was incorporated when necessary.
Debate	What actions are developed in your service for the health care of children and adolescents with HIV? What actions could be developed in your service?	What is the responsibility of my health service regarding children and adolescents living with HIV?	How can be constituted the flow of assistance to children and adolescents with HIV in Santa Maria? How to develop the intersectoral approach for the functioning of the flow?	Do you agree with this flow of customer service? (group validation) How could it be its implementation? Which are the responsibilities among the organs involved?
Synthesis	Resume and validation of the central ideas of the participatory discussion
Closure of the session	Participation acknowledgement, combinations for the next session.
