This study aims to reflect on the ratification of the Privileges’ Competencies and Privileges of Social Work professionals in the field of Mental Health, in order to assess the professional practice of social workers with the Public Policy of Mental Health. For that, a research with mixed focus, of an exploratory nature, was carried out from bibliographical sources. The technique of content analysis was employed, just as the method used was the dialectical-critical one. For this, a mapping of Social Service production in the subject of Mental Health was carried out in magazines of scientific recognition in the field of knowledge of the Social Service, relating to the Privileges’ Competencies and Social Attributes. Mental health is a field with great challenges, but also of immense potential both in professional practice and in scientific production.
