This research used qualitative approach, such as Bardin content analysis technic. The results showed three groups of matrix support understandings: as thematic appropriation and mental health care by the Primary Care, as a labor inspection strategy of primary care and as a training device and guidance for mental health action. It was also highlighted the expansion of mental health care with matrix support and the difficulty to implement productive meetings lined in building partnerships for health promotion.
