This can indicate a possible Care Clinic based on affection and bond. It is discussed the polarization of the political debate about drugs. It was made a bet on Harm Reduction as a guideline care from the per - spective of overcoming the resentment commonly impregnated in the practices and discourses from the area. Among the results was possible to identify the collective production of a rap music in the middle of the investigative process, this "gives another tone" to the experiences and positions of the patients, pointing to the creation of new existential territories as an alternative to public policies committed with health promotion.
