%X the paper understands multiproblem family as a vulnerable system of high risk, in part due to their internal mechanisms and in part by the action of social forces that reinforce their malfunction. after an extensive bibliographic review, the authors propose as its central characteristics, poly-symptomatology and recurrent crisis, disorganization, abandonment of parental functions and isolation, focusing the discussion specifically on those families at social risk. in a second part, the article develops a schema of professional intervention, that includes the function of social services and their potentially noxious relationship with these families, the epistemological background and the contexts on which the intervention unfolds, and the main strategies suggested to implement good practices in the professional work.
