SILVA, Cláudia Yaísa Gonçalves da  and  MOTTA, Ivonise Fernandes da. The future perspective in the context of adolescence in institutional shelter. Nat. hum. [online]. 2020, vol.22, n.2, pp. 189-203. ISSN 1517-2430.

This article aims to reflect on how the future perspective has focused on adolescents in institutional shelter. A bibliographical review of scientific articles and books was performed, using D. W. Winnicott's psychoanalytical contributions for theoretical reflection. The future perspective was conceived by the notion of hope, indicating the search for the repair of gaps imposed by the provider environment. The concepts of hope and regression are central to highlighting the possibility of resuming healthy maturation. Hope and future prospects were found to be protective factors in this population. The maintenance of family and community life, the affective bonds in the institution and the professional glimpse also favor the belief in a constructive future and may be moderators of negative impacts.

Keywords : Adolescence; Institutional Shelter; Psychoanalysis; Winnicott; Donald Woods.
