From the study, the results identified the socioeconomic level as the main social factor that generates violence towards children and adolescents, followed by customs and beliefs as the most recurrent cultural factor that evidences the naturalization of violence. On the other hand, the most prevalent change from psychosocial intervention to prevent violence has manifested itself within families where there is better coexistence between members, dialogue between the family group as a way of resolving conflicts. In order to deal with cases of violation of the rights of this priority group, the research has considered the participatory construction of community routes in accordance with the dynamics of each community.
