This paper aims to articulate a proposition for the clinical and pedagogical work with autistic persons. It begins with the discussion about the three impossibilities presented by Freud, to which is added the dimension of the action towards the Austism. It characterizes the psychoanalysis’ concepts which are useful for this clinical workd, and the construtivistic references that underlie the pedagogical actions. It describes the work developed by the multiprofessional team of the Escola Municipal do Autista de São José do Rio Preto, SP, and ends with some comments about the meaning of such works.
