The GRAPAL was founded in 1986 for the attendance of undergraduation students of FMUSP (Physiotherapy, Speech Therapy, Medicine and Occupational Therapy). Currently, besides undergraduation students, residents of FMUSP are also cared for.

The assistance is carried out in two main aspects: attendance in clinical psychiatry (with psychiatrists) and psychotherapy (with psychologists).

The operation of GRAPAL is independent from other FMUSP instances, reporting its activities directly to the Undergraduation Committee and to the Director’s Board of the School. The data are completely confidential, according to the dictates of medical ethics, not notifying the name of the students attending the service to any instances of FMUSP.
