This article assesses social responsibility actions developed by a Brazilian private academic institution from July 2017 to July 2018. It is a descriptive, longitudinal and quantitative study based on the academic technical reports, attendance lists and half-year reports produced by the Social Responsibility Center of the Sena Aires Faculty of Science and Education, located in Valparaíso de Goiás, state of Goiás, Brazil. The study’s quantitative variables were expressed in descriptive measures: minimum and maximum levels, averages and standard deviations. Its findings include an increase in the number of students, faculty members and support professionals participating in social responsibility actions. A highlight is the increase in the levels of adherence by undergraduate students of physiotherapy and pharmacy and biochemistry, and by technical-level nursing students. A total of 1109 health care services were provided in the period, notably auriculotherapy and acupuncture. These findings evince the institution’s insertion in its local and regional geographic and socioeconomic environment – an essential element for the consolidation of its Social Responsibility Center. |
