Popis: Objective: To investigate foster institution residents’ conceptions of lifestyle and enable the promotion of health in this space through theory and practical pedagogical workshops. Methods: A study carried out from September to November 2015 in Santiago, Rio Grande do Sul, with 09 female residents of a foster institution. The present study was divided into three modules: (i) contacting those responsible for the foster institution; (ii) carrying out a preliminary evaluation by the residents on the topic of lifestyle using as tool the Pentacle of Well-being (PWB); (iii) elaboration and execution of theory-practical workshops addressing the themes: body hygiene, oral hygiene, sex education, healthy eating and physical activity. Results: With regard to body hygiene, all residents have the habit of washing their hands before meals. As for oral hygiene, more than half do not have the habit of flossing daily and only a minority undergoes periodical consultations with the dentist. On the topic of sex education, all residents know or have had contact with some contraceptive method. Regarding healthy eating, a majority is used to ingesting lots of sweets and rarely consume soft drinks. Less than half of the participants are used to incorporating the physical activity practice into their leisure experiences. From the PWE analysis, theory-practical pedagogical workshops were elaborated. Conclusion: It was observed that the participants presented a positive perception of the lifestyle according to the parameters of the instrument used.
