    Addressing a topic of extreme complexity and topicality, domestic and family violence permeates a historical context that highlights its relevance. This problem has been constantly highlighted in the media, highlighting a phenomenon that, although it has gained greater visibility in recent years, has always existed, but was often covered up by social taboos. Notably, women were the primary victims of this type of violence and were often silenced due to entrenched social conventions. The impacts of domestic and family violence are devastating, affecting countless lives. According to the Atlas of Violence (2023), between 2011 and 2021, the number of murders of women reached an average of 1.2 per 100 thousand women in the country. This alarming data illustrates the seriousness and urgency of tackling this problem effectively. Through data analysis, doctrine and interviews, the objective is to analyze the effectiveness and importance of the Maria da Penha Patrol of the Military Police of the State of Paraná as a crucial tool in the affirmation of women's rights, analyzing the theoretical foundation and the practical implementation of this type of patrol, which, although it acts in an ostensive and uniformed way,  Its scope is the optimization of care and greater reception for victims of domestic violence, aiming at the reduction of service rates and the minimization of the number of fatal victims. In this context, the Maria da Penha Patrol in the PMPR emerges as a tool to help meet the established national goals, along with the actions provided for in the internal guidelines of the military organization, playing a fundamental role in the prevention, monitoring and protection of victims.
