This article aims to report the experience of a Harm Reduction group with users being monitored at the Center for Psychosocial Care for Alcohol and other Drugs in the city of Horizonte - CE, in addition to describing how the actions in the group are developed and presenting strengths and weaknesses harm reduction strategies in the treatment of psychoactive abuse. For this, it is a descriptive study, of the experience report type, elaborated in the context / experience of the Integrated Residence in Health - emphasis on Collective Mental Health by the School of Public Health of Ceará. We consider the harm reduction group to be an indispensable therapeutic resource, as it promotes the redefinition of the meanings attributed to the act of caring, in addition to showing not only the construction of a care relationship, but also the possibility of a relationship based on protagonism and autonomy of users, in addition to contributing significantly to coping strategies, especially for users who are unable or unwilling to interrupt consumption. The experience contributed to the expansion of possibilities in the challenge of the use and dependence of alcohol and other drugs, aiming at the realization of a comprehensive care model that prioritizes the users' subjectivity.
