This article describes the author’s experience working on a project in Maranhão, one of the poorest regions of Brazil, with a group of volunteers from the Istituto per la Prevenzione del Disagio Minorile [Institute for the Prevention of Minors’ Distress] (IPDM), an Italian nonprofit association. The focus of the project was on bringing psychological and medical help to educators, families, and children in the communities of Peritorò and Bom Jardim, where children often experience problems related to family breakdown and extreme poverty. Ideas from social cognitive transactional analysis, which provided the rationale for the project, are described along with some of the interventions used and results achieved by the team
