This article proposes an ethnographic analysis of collective organization processes generated around care in popular sectors, specifically analyzing the practices of women who are members of cooperatives and participate in social programs training spaces. Based on an ethnographic research developed with women beneficiaries of «Ellas Hacen» social program (Argentina), we interrogate the meanings and practices toward care built by these women, showing the centrality of collective practices in tension with familiaristic and maternalistic models of care. Recovering contributions from feminist economics and from an anthropological and ethnographic perspective on the collective, we show that these dynamics of care allow to rethink the limits between the autonomous/ dependent population or public/private spheres. We argue in favor of inquiring in the boundaries between care of others and self-care, interrogating what is produced during the process of caring
