Objective: to analyze the satisfaction of family members with the social support received during the care of chil-dren exposed to human immunodeficiency virus. Methods:cross-sectional study with 87 relatives of these children, in a university hospital. The Satisfaction with Social Support Sca-le was used. Sociodemographic and clinical variables were analyzed using the Lilliefors, Kruskal-Wallis and Mann-Whi-tney tests. Results: the participants, mostly mothers, sho-wed high satisfaction with the total social support (57 out of 75 points). The average indicated that the satisfaction was high for the support received from the family (80.46), follo-wed by that provided by friendships (72.86) and intimacy (63.36) and low for social activities (55.65). The group clas-sified with income up to R$879.00 presented less satisfac-tion with social support (average=50,83) if compared with the group of income superior to R$879.00 (average=58,78) (p=0,014). Conclusion: the satisfaction with the social sup-port of the relatives is high and influenced by income.
