Abstract
Objective: It is objective in this bibliographic examination, to gather the existing literature to present public policies for women's health in the school environment through government programs such as the Programa Saúde na Escola (PSE). Bibliographic Review: Women's health in Brazil has assumed an important place in public and private health homes, being the subject of campaigns and actions aimed at reducing the incidence of female deaths. Historically, women have had their health neglected, their care reduced and their role in society reduced to home care, in addition to objectification in the service of the male figure. In the quest to reduce carelessness with women's health, campaigns and policies were launched to increase care and ensure a more humane treatment of women's needs. Inserting these care policies in schools was a way of ensuring that future generations were made aware of the real needs of women, and a means of reaching a large proportion of women through public health programs. Final considerations: The school environment works as an instrument of access to women and schools expand the range of patients, a way to prevent diseases and increase awareness about health policies.
