Abstract

Objective: To understand the articulation of life experiences of adolescents who are under socio-educative measure in
semi-open regime, investigating the possibility of building a life project. Methods: The sample consisted of 22 male
adolescents, aged between 15 and 20 years, who were under socio-educative measure in a semi-liberty unit of a city in the
interior of Rio Grande do Sul. For data collection, semi-structured interviews were used with guiding principles and the data
were analyzed with the content analysis. Results: The results showed that most adolescents envisioned proposals to build
a life project. Adolescents also noted the institution of semi-liberty as a mediator for the resumption of studies and to start
searching a legal job. Conclusion: It was pointed out the importance of semi-liberty institutions in helping to build a life
project of adolescents. Moreover, public politics of monitoring are proposed after completion of socio educative measures
