This study aimed to understand the crack users perception of their family relationships. And the specific objectives were to understand the dynamics and family composition in childhood and adolescence of crack users, analyze drug use history, identify the access to health and social care services in the city of Santos / SP; and see how the public policies of health and social care are responding to the needs of crack users and their families.

Various problems faced by households related to drug use was reported, with the support of this was reported by users as an important form of motivation to control the use of this drug. The perception of crack users on its relations with the family of origin reveals the presence of several factors associated with increased vulnerability to drug use.
