Abstract

The main goal of this study was to understand the meaning given by the disabled child’s family to the therapeutic letters that they received during their participation in the Intervention
Program with Mental Disabled Child’s Families (PIFCDM). Data collection was conducted in May 2010 interviewing six families. The qualitative analysis of content, according to Morse, led the
research. The category of “being a reference to the family” expresses the meaning of the therapeutic letters to the families. This is a new experience for the families, who were pleasantly surprised, allowing the awakening of positive feelings and considerations to their history. Reading the letters widens the understanding of the situation experienced, enabling the
family to modify the way that they handle the situations, giving rise to a sense of empowerment of their capabilities in their history with the disabled child. The therapeutic letters showed that they can be valuable interventions in the disabled child’s family care.
