Brazilian state first ladies social initiatives

Overview

Social inclusion and protection initiatives led by first ladies in Brazil have focused on health, professional training, and women’s rights.

In Amazonas, the “Governo Presente” program has provided neuropediatry consultations, social assistance cards, and menstrual dignity kits. Recent expansions of the program in Manaus, specifically in the Cidade Nova neighborhood, have centralized state services including medical exams, entrepreneurship guidance, and access to documentation. The initiative also facilitates financial aid through programs such as ‘Crédito Solidário’ and ‘Crédito Rosa’. Additionally, Thaisa Cidade, president of the Social Promotion and Poverty Eradication Fund, has supported the “Agosto Lilás” campaign in partnership with the Amazonas State Public Ministry to combat domestic and family violence by strengthening protection networks and upholding the Maria da Penha Law.

In São Paulo, first lady and president of the State Social Fund Cristiane Freitas has continued monitoring the ‘Caminho da Capacitação’ program. This initiative utilizes mobile units to offer free vocational courses to promote employment and income generation. Recent activities included creative sewing courses in Rio Grande da Serra, as well as baking and pizza making courses in Ribeirão Pires through a partnership between municipal and state governments.
