This study reports on a practical experience with the integration between learning, services, and the community including members of family health teams and undergraduate medical and nursing students participating in the Educational Program for Health Work (PET-Saúde) at Santa Cruz State University. The integration took place within the context of the project "United Against Dengue", an integrated mobilization of the teaching institution, health services, and community in the fight against dengue fever in the district of Nossa Senhora da Vitória, Ilhéus, Bahia State. The projects focused on health education activities, especially with active teaching and learning methods. The mobilization included a significant range of age groups. The project's success emphasizes the importance of implementing programs such as PET-Saúde that strengthen the interaction between learning, services, and the community, important for developing more qualified health services with the capacity to interrelate health promotion, prevention, and healthcare, fostering health activities more in line with the needs of the Unified National Health System (SUS). This experience aims to contribute to the qualification and training of health professionals and students that are willing to work in an integrated and integrating approach with the community.
