Abstract
This study addresses the issue of domestic violence against women, highlighting the role of shelters in Amazonas as essential instruments in breaking the cycle of violence. The general objective is to analyse how these institutions contribute to the protection and recovery of victims, providing comprehensive support that promotes their autonomy and security. The methodology applied is based on a theoretical and practical analysis of the functioning of shelters, assessing legislative aspects and their application in the state of Amazonas. The research reveals that sheltering offers a safe and structured environment where women receive psychological, legal, and social support, significantly contributing to breaking the violence cycle and rebuilding self-esteem. The results indicate that, beyond providing shelter, these facilities offer multidimensional support that helps victims understand their rights and develop the confidence necessary to break ties with the aggressor. The conclusions reinforce the importance of these shelters within the women's protection system, suggesting the need to improve shelter policies to fully ensure victims’ rights to safety and dignity. Expanding resources and continuous team training are recommended to ensure shelters in Amazonas can provide even more effective assistance to women in vulnerable situations.
