To analyze the perception of relatives of patients with mental disorders about the support group in a psychiatric hospitalization ward.

Data collection took place in October 2016, through semi-structured interviews. A thematic content analysis was used for the treatment of data, whence emerged the category: Perception of family members about the support group.
Results:
The relatives perceive the group as a space that gives them strength and support, allowing for listening and experience exchange among its members, giving information on the disease and treatment, safety, and inserting the family in the treatment.
Final Considerations:
The support group can be understood as a strategic action of caring for the family, affecting their lives and the treatment of those who are hospitalized.
