The Student Housing Program of the Campinas State University (Unicamp) shelters about 1,000 low-income under-graduate and masters degree students vulnerable to health problems, mainly in public primary health-care. The purpose of this research is to propose a form of health education based on the participation of subjects and researches through a health census of the housing residents, carried out through a structured questionnaire on topics of the primary level Brazilian Public Health System. The data will be analyzed descriptively in order to guide the intervention. If necessary, students will be directed to other health services. At the end of this research, we expect to find a social and economic profile similar to the low-income part of the Brazilian population that depends on public health systems and a prevalence of diseases similar to the numbers found in the country.
