RESUMO
São Paulo, the most populous Brazilian city, has been the main destination for refugees and it is home to the majority of Congolese, who are the second largest nationality to request refuge in Brazil. In the context of these migrations, previous experiences in displacement and in places of welcome can trigger illness and suffering. The purpose of this article was to analyse the therapeutic itineraries of refugees from the Democratic Republic of Congo who reside in the city of São Paulo. The research followed an ethnographic approach and included focus group, ethnographic observation and in-depth interviews with 15 Congolese men in refuge in São Paulo between 2015 and 2016. The difficulties faced in the dignified reconstruction of lives include housing, precarious work and racism. Different systems are actuated in healthcare, treatment in health centres and hospitals regarding acute and chronic physical problems, in addition to self-care, identified in the preparation of teas for gastrointestinal ailments. When confronted by suffering, religious social networks, and those of friends and family are activated, in addition to alcohol consumption. The family is sought when facing financial and, principally, emotional problems. The itineraries include multiple therapeutic systems and a dialectic relationship with free, universal services perceived as inequitable.

The large number of individuals with severe mental disorders in prisons worldwide has alarming implications, which leads to the question of the appropriateness of the prison system for people with this type of morbidity. This article discusses these implications, the problems in therapeutic approaches and the legal aspects in the Brazilian context.
RESUMO
Estudos sobre violência sexual contra crianças e adolescentes indicam que familiares e conhecidos são os maiores agressores, tornando difícil a sua denúncia. Na infância e na adolescência, a escola pode ser um local ideal para detecção, intervenção e promoção de fatores de proteção que diminuam a violência e seu impacto sobre o desenvolvimento. Este trabalho teve como objetivo analisar os casos de violência sexual identificados ou revelados no contexto educacional, descrevendo suas formas, incidências, perfil da vítima, do agressor, do responsável pela identificação e circunstância da revelação. As ocorrências foram selecionadas dentre os 2.522 protocolos de atendimento de um programa estadual de denúncia e assistência a vítimas de violência sexual, e totalizaram apenas 22 casos. Nestes, houve o predomínio do sexo feminino e idade até 12 anos. A professora foi a maior responsável pelo desvendamento, que ocorreu principalmente por meio de relatos verbais das vítimas.(AU)
Studies on sexual violence towards children and teenagers have demonstrated that family members and acquaintances are the most usual aggressors, which makes it all the more difficult to make accusations. During childhood and adolescence, the school setting might be the ideal place for detection, intervention, and promotion of features of protection to reduce violence and its impact upon their development. The aim of this paper was to analyze cases of sexual violence identified or revealed in educational settings, describing its forms, incidence, victim and aggressor profiles, as well as the individuals responsible for their identification. Twenty-two cases have been selected out of 2, 522 records provided by a state accusation program that offers support to victims of sexual violence. The data also show that victims are mainly females under the age of 12. Teachers were largely responsible for revealing the cases, which were mainly verbally communicated by the victims.(AU)
