This study aims to present an experience concerning of interventions made in the waiting room, pointing out its political power to strengthen the Brazilian Psychiatric Reform (RPB). From the semiprofessional insertion of undergraduate students in Psychology from a private college in Fortaleza/CE in a Center for Psychosocial Care Alcohol and Other Drugs (CAPSad), the waiting room was taken as an intervention device and analyzer of the service. Based on the demand of the field and the readings on expanded clinic, it was sought to produce a space of listening and welcoming. In addition, the work was based on the perspective of Reducing Risk and Damage (DRR), in order to broaden the view on the issue of drugs and enable other ways of thinking and acting in the field of collective mental health. The problematized themes had effects both for the users and the staff of the service, as well as for the trainees, because at each meeting an area of empowerment and social control was built. Despite the infrastructural difficulties, we realize that the CAPS, driven by a team politically and ethically Anti-Asylum Campaign, manages to work, betting on the potentialities of the community, collectively providing other possibilities of existence and moving away from the perspective reductionist as absence of disease.
