| Resumo: | In Brazil, the homeless population grows significantly, especially if the post-pandemic scenario is taken into account. However, based on the invisibility conferred on the group, the performance of some institutions ends up being the only way found by such individuals to gain access to their constitutional rights. In this context, the Public Defender's Office emerges as a judicial function of the State, which is responsible for legal guidance, the promotion of fundamental rights and the defense of the individual and collective rights of the vulnerable. In this sense, homeless people are part of the institution's target audience, being considered hypervulnerable, given that they do not have their existential minimum assured. With this, the present study starts from the following problem: how does the Public Defender’s work provide homeless people with access to justice and, consequently, to their fundamental rights? It works, then, with the hypothesis that the institution guarantees access to fundamental rights to the mentioned population group through judicial and extrajudicial means, but that there is still a need for this exercise to grow in order to reach the population portion under discussion in its entirety. From this, an analysis was carried out of how the performance of the Nucleus for the Defense of Vulnerable Social Groups and the Homeless Population (NUDEV), a specialized nucleus of the Public Defender’s Office of the State of Rio Grande do Norte, enables access to justice by the homeless people in Natal/RN. Thereby, this research seeks to examine the role of the Public Defender's Office as an institution responsible for meeting the demands of the aforementioned population group. This objective is achieved through a qualitative and exploratory approach, since it uses the analysis of bibliographic and documentary sources, in addition to the study of the actions carried out by the core member of the DPE/RN. The analysis of the results obtained leads to an understanding that the Public Defender's Office promotes the guarantee of fundamental rights and access to justice for the homeless population through different means, such as issuing recommendations to the Public Power; filing lawsuits to protect the group's diffuse and collective rights; and the use of the active search strategy to understand the demands of this segment. However, it is possible to conclude that such tools are still not enough to overcome the various obstacles that prevent complete access to justice by that group. |
