Abstract

The present article had as support the supervised internship carried out in 2005 at State Penitentiary of Maringá (Penitenciária Estadual de Maringá – PEM) and approaches the insertion of a Social Service intern at a prison environment. The article outlines the limits, possibilities and challenges that an intern might face while in internship at a “total institution”, in other words, an institution that is closed to society. It will present the main laws that the intern should master as well as the main physical and social aspects of the prison. In the end, it provides a few suggestions regarding the posture that the Social Service intern should adopt while intending to act at a maximum security penitentiary along with without parole prisoners.
