This research relates to the analysis of the social assistance policy, its historical relation with poverty and some tendencies of the contemporary debate about its paradigms, of the social right of citizenship and of the user. The current examination of the assistance policy in Brazil, in a legal context of social rights affirmation, imposed the necessity of reflecting about the place of the citizenship rights, placing, in the center of this reflection, the rate between the priority given to poverty coping and the perspective of the social citizenship rights guarantee. The study perspective is proposed with a view to understanding the role played by users as subjects of rights.The prospect of this approach to the understanding, seek some theoretical supports in Categories rights, citizenship and relative surplus population in order to arrange them, in their contemporary conformation, from the socioeconomic profile of the users. We chose the beneficiaries of the cash transfer program Bolsa Familia in three localities in Campos dos Goytacazes / RJ, since this program takes up more than 50% of families enrolled in CadÚnico,ie, 28.985 million families are receiving the benefit, totaling more than 100,000 people in a population of 463,731,000 inhabitants. The qualitative research with 30 women-mothers, holders in the program, revealed their expectations, experiences and political positions before the healthcare field. Historical records that brought about the generations that preceded them confirm the reproduction trajectory of poverty and inequality that many were subjected to the present day. We conclude that the perception that feature on the history of his ancestors, of themselves and of the institutional apparatus of the state, reiterates the potential of their daily struggles for survival, of the established denial, confirmed by the construction of forms of relationship with social institutions of public and private policies. Even in individual perspective, their practices and daily struggles, which they call "running after", express expectations for the realization and expansion of rights. The completion of the thesis points out the reaffirmation of the historical dimension of these practices and struggles that develop on the rights and citizenship, the limits of individual perspective and the necessity of deepening political and punctual nature of social assistance policy and the fight against poverty.
