This paper presents the extension program “Clinic, Aesthetics and Care Policy”, denoting the various axes that are searched in this action. This program’s main objectives are to offer psychoanalitical orientation service to children and adolescents in psychological distress and their care takers as well as to foster the training of students and professionals in the clinical institutional work with this clientele, in an interdisciplinary perspective. It is conducted in partnership with the Centro de Referência à Infância (Childhood Reference Center) - INCERE, which provides clinical supervision.
