RESUMO:

The access of disabled people to Higher Education is a growing reality in Brazil. Through Affirmative Policies that population, historically neglected and stigmatized, has been getting access to Federal Institutions of Higher Education. Nevertheless, besides the access, it is necessary to construct solid bases in order to guarantee both the permanence and the inclusion of those students at the University. As a relevant component of the process of characterizing the disability for legal purposes  in relation to the eligibity for a vacancy in undergraduate courses at UFBA (the Federal University of Bahia), the Rubens Brasil Service of Promotion to Health (RBSPH) (SMURB in Portuguese), has been carrying out, through its multiprofessional team, the assessment of disabled candidates’ functioning. The assessment is based on the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) (CIF in Portuguese) and aims to identify aspects of health, functioning and social vulnerabilities in that population. It is still a technology which is in its ongoing process as well as in its improvement. The main objective of this study was to generate subsidies which can improve functioning assessment of disabled candidates who wish to enter into a course at UFBA via affirmative policies starting from the analysis of social vulnerability. It is an exploratory and descriptive study with a quantitative approach performed at RBSPH (SMURB), which has, as a sample, 55 disabled candidates who had their functioning assessed between the two semesters of 2018. As its main sources, the secondary data gotten from the answers in the assessment sheets were considered by the RBSPH Inclusion Center. The data were analyzed and presented in tables and graphs according to the candidates’ socio - demographic, economic and functioning profiles having as its basis the theoretical reference of this study. Its results show the great social vulnerability of that population, which has an impact on the functioning and can have some implications relating to the students’ permanence and conclusion of the course at UFBA. It is necessary to build up constant communication among the various social actors involved in the elaboration of this support process given to disabled people at UFBA, having the functioning assessment as its starting point.
