Concept

SESI Citizenship is locally implemented whenever new UPPs are installed at each location. [6] Its goal is to bring leisure activities and social services for the inhabitants of the region - some of them in a permanent way. [7] According to previous researches that identify the main needs of each community, [8] it is created a plan of what will be offered to residents. [9] By the way, some of them are even hired to perform certain functions, such as: monitor the progress of work; identify the local needs further; promote, explain and enroll residents in activities and courses offered by the program. [10] The so-called "SESI Citizenship Agents" also encourage people to learn how to read and write for the first time. [11]

The program was created and implemented by State Public Security Secretary José Mariano Beltrame, with the backing of Rio Governor Sérgio Cabral.

The UPP program scored initial success expelling gangs, and won broad praise. But the expensive initiative expanded too far, too fast into dozens of favelas as state finances cratered, causing a devastating backslide that enabled gangs to recover some of their lost grip.
