Non-formal education can be defined as an educational space for the construction of knowledge necessary for life in community, through the work of the social educator. The aim of this paper is to characterize the action of the social educator by investigating their professional profile with the project Projovem Teenager in the city of Presidente Prudente /SP. The research methodology is guided in the techniques of literature review, document analysis and interviews, as qualitative elements. In the practical field, with the design on screen, the social educator plays the role of facilitating the trajectory of each young person and the collective youth toward personal and social development, contributing to the development of an educational, participatory and democratic environment
