With the implementation of Unified Social Assistance System (SUAS - Portuguese acronym), the Social Assistance went through important reformulations, which have changed the operational standard of the public policy, and have been demanding new forms of organization and work, new roles and competence from participating social actors. On the top of that, Psychology workers have been required to contribute with their knowledge and working methods. An Insertion that brought concerns and challenges in the psychologists’ professional practice in the field of social assistance policy. In this article, we intend to bring into light the importance of the Psychology work at the SARC, taking the revolutionary subjectivity as its specific locus of action when coping with social inequality. With this in mind, we have turned to the theoretical assumptions of sociohistorical Psychology, through concepts such as ethical-political distress and revolutionary subjectivity, elaborated by Bader Sawaia who studies the dialectical exclusion-inclusion process, inspired by the theories from Vygotsky and Espinosa.

Keywords : Socio-historical Psychology; Social inequality; Revolutionary subjectivity; SARC; Social transformation.
