In this context, was instituted the Programa de Salud Mental para Ciudadanos Detenidos o Bajo Medidas de Seguridad, and within it, the mental health in jails' dispositive. The article analyzes the implications towards the creation of interdisciplinary groups, and the production of an innovative intervention logic, external to the penitentiary system, but within it. The data comes from a qualitative study, based on in-depth interviews to political authorities and professionals from the interdisciplinary groups. It also analyzes materials obtained during a participant observation in a meeting with the whole groups that worked at penal units. The historical moment is relevant because the mental health approach in jails has no precedents in the country and constitutes an important subject to problematize within 26.657 law's framework.
