Abstract
Objective: To relate social entrepreneurship to therapeutic workshops based on an experience of nursing academics in a Psychosocial Care Center (CAPS). Methods: This is a descriptive, exploratory, observational study, which followed the methodology of the problematization of the Arch of Maguerez. The research was carried out in a modality III CAPS, located in a middle-class neighborhood in Belém, Pará. Results and Discussions: Therapeutic workshops function as an instrument of mental health care, in which the links between users and professionals are strengthened, as well as are valued and respected to the individualities of each one, giving space for expression and externalization of thoughts and feelings, collaborating with its unique therapeutic project and its social reintegration. Given the lack of resources to maintain the therapeutic workshops held at the CAPS, it was proposed to create a virtual store whose objective was to sell customized products by the users themselves, and consequently raise funds to continue this therapeutic resource. Conclusion: The implementation of entrepreneurship in the CAPS, through the virtual store, can encourage the execution of therapeutic workshops and give continuity to other activities developed in the CAPS.
