It has a quantitative and qualitative approach, through bibliographic research, survey of demographic data in specialized agencies and interviews with three local agents about the implementation of the Program in the city of Lajeado. The data collected bring a systemic view of the regional scenario, guiding questions about the feasibility of implementing housing developments in Lajeado, as well as positive points and difficulties encountered in the management of the Program. The study has its relevance for improving the Program with regard to the accountability of public spending to the population, the distribution of income from the civil construction sector and the improvement of the flow of its administrative process.
