Abstract
The occupation of Rondônia, from the 1970s, occurred in a disorganized way, since it attracted an amount of migrants which was much bigger than the settling projects could sustain.

In this context, the Urban Center for Rural Support (NUAR) was implanted, intending to support the agricultural workers
