This research aims to analyze the consequences of the context of the COVID-19 pandemic for the follow-up carried out at the Social Protection Service for Adolescents in compliance with a socio-educational measure in an open environment at SUAS in the municipality of Niterói/RJ. The study contextualizes the historical course of actions aimed at children and adolescents in order to understand current trends, focusing on the context in which adolescents who commit offenses are found, problematizing the violations of rights that afflict this group and the contradictions in the face of rights guaranteed since the enactment of the ECA. The analysis focuses mainly on the work carried out in socio-educational measures, considering the challenges for implementing socio-education in times of a pandemic and the consequent intensification of precarious work within the scope of SUAS. The analysis relies on a structured interview with professionals who were at the forefront of monitoring Assisted Freedom (LA) and Community Service Provision (PSC), pointing out important reflections on the implementation of socio-education, violence in capitalist society and the limitations imposed by the pandemic situation, also considering the structural dynamics of violations of rights of adolescent perpetrators of infractions.
