Based on the evidence of the positive effects that home visits have on people’s well-being, the article presents the results of a study about the vision of social workers who work professionally in Chilean public schools on home visits as a strategy of professional activity. It delves into the definition and importance attributed to home visits, in identifying limits and strengths, and in the perception of effectiveness. The methodology of the study was qualitative, with the application of three discussion groups involving a total of 25 social workers.
