Resumo

The organization and functioning of a shelter of a humanistic and non feminist institution (called �Social Solidarity�) was the main focus of this study. For this purpose, three semi-structured interviews were conducted with professionals working in the shelter: the director of the Executive Border, the coordinator who is social worker and the psychologist. The analysis shows a normative vision about the way women ought to behave and set their daily routines, associated with a rigid organization of regulations and schedules. Furthermore, visioning the woman only as mother, this perspective shows a high level of tolerance to gender violence, in �some circumstances�. In this respect, this kind of institutions risks to fall into the �blaming the victim� perspective.
