This study analyzes a governmental social policy, implemented in Goiás from 1995 to 2002. The study focus on two programs: Apoio às Famílias Carentes (1995 to 1998) and Renda Cidadã (1999 to 2002). Through this analysis, the similarities and the differences between the design of the two programs, as well as the possible advances and innovations introduced into the scenario of the governmental social policies in Goiás were established, specially during a moment of decentralization of the social policies in the country. For the purpose of analysis and discussion, a reexamination of the literature was done in order to achieve the various approaches concerning historical conditions and the proper perspectives of the social policies and programs. The case study, as an empiric approach technique for the analysis of the main point of research, allowed the use of the following research techniques: semi-structured interviews, documental research, use of statistical data and observation. The results show an advance both of the mechanisms and the form of implementation of social policies and programs in Goiás. There is no doubt that such programs have the goal of improving the lives of destitute families. However, despite their importance in a context of destitution, there are indications that they were not able to reach the totality of the target public in Goiás destitute families who earn one minimum salary or less. As a consequence, it became difficult to achieve the goals of fighting against the poverty in the State. This persistent scenario of poverty, not only in Goiás, but in the whole country of Brazil, shows that there is a great deal of work left to do in order to minimize the social differences, specially poverty.
