Resumo: Among informal caregivers – those who do not receive a salary – of people with disabilities it is common for them to give up their lives to take care of their loved one, presenting difficulties in maintaining interpersonal relationships, leisure, work and health. Therefore, a socio-educational support network is important to assist them in coping with everyday difficulties. The aim of the study was to evaluate whether there was an improvement in the quality of life of caregivers of people with disabilities participating in a continuous action extension project and the contribution that the social/educational support network formed by the group generated in their lives in a time frame between 2017 and 2021. Data were collected from the Quality of Life Assessment questionnaires (SF-36) and the Caregivers Perception Assessment regarding the formation of a support network and its role in their lives. No differences in quality of life were identified over the period of interest, including the COVID-19 pandemic years. The caregivers demonstrated that there was a positive contribution in their lives due to their participation in the extension project. Thus, university extension can be an ally in the process of improving and maintaining the quality of life of caregivers.

Logo, uma rede de apoio socioeducacional é importante para auxiliá-los no enfrentamento das dificuldades cotidianas. O objetivo do estudo foi avaliar se houve melhora na qualidade de vida das cuidadoras de pessoa com deficiência participantes de um projeto de extensão de ação contínua, e a contribuição que a rede de apoio social/educacional formada pelo grupo gerou na vida delas em um recorte temporal entre 2017 e 2021. Os dados foram coletados a partir dos questionários de Avaliação de Qualidade de Vida (SF-36) e de Avaliação da Percepção dos cuidadores quanto à formação de uma rede de apoio e seu papel em suas vidas. Não foram identificadas diferenças na qualidade de vida no período de interesse, incluindo os anos de pandemia de COVID-19. As cuidadoras demonstraram que houve uma contribuição positiva em suas vidas decorrente da participação no projeto de extensão. Assim, a extensão universitária pode ser uma aliada no processo de melhoria e manutenção da qualidade de vida dos cuidadores.Universidade Federal de Uberlândia2023-04-28info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionAvaliado pelos paresapplication/pdfhttps://seer.ufu.br/index.php/reveducpop/article/view/6745610.14393/REP-2023-67456Revista de Educação Popular; v. 22 n. 1 (2023): Revista de Educação Popular (ISSN 1982-7660) ; 98-1171982-76601678-5622reponame:Revista de educação popular (Online)instname:Universidade Federal de Uberlândia (UFU)instacron:UFUporhttps://seer.ufu.br/index.php/reveducpop/article/view/67456/36012Copyright (c) 2023 Camila Silva Martins, Alethéa Gatto Barschak, Lucila Ludmila Paula Gutierrezhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessMartins, Camila SilvaBarschak, Alethéa GattoGutierrez, Lucila Ludmila Paula2023-04-28T19:44:48Zoai:ojs.www.seer.ufu.br:article/67456Revistahttp://www.seer.ufu.br/index.php/reveducpopPUBhttp://www.seer.ufu.br/index.php/reveducpop/oairevistapopular@proex.ufu.br||revistapopular@proex.ufu.br1678-56221982-7660opendoar:2023-04-28T19:44:48Revista de educação popular (Online) - Universidade Federal de Uberlândia (UFU)false
