The work presented aims to understand the therapeutic procedures of families that accompany mental health treatment for children in Sobral-CE. It was possible to present the conceptions on the field of child mental health, as well as the deepening of the concepts of childhood, mental illness and therapeutic itinerary, contextualized in the world, national and municipal fields. Analyze the role of the mental health care network for the interviewed families and the ways of coping with mental illness, from a phenomenological perspective. The research methodology took place in a qualitative, exploratory and phenomenological study. Ten families of children up to twelve years old who were followed by the CAPS Geral of the city of Sobral were interviewed. The interviewees spoke about the itinerary made for a search for treatment in mental health, thus, the prevalence of referrals by health centers and referral hospitals in the mental health network was observed. It was possible to observe that most of the interviewed families had difficulty in accepting the child's diagnosis and that there was an important role in guiding the school about the care of family members. The need for more specialized child mental health care in the city of Sobral was also identified. A descriptive observation of the phenomenological research enabled a greater detail of the interviewees' posture regarding the themes raised.
