To check the scientific literature the challenges faced by family members in the care of people with Mental Disorders. Method: This is an integrative review. The search for articles was carried out; with delimitation in the last 5 years (2015-2020); in Portuguese, English and Spanish; available in full. On the following data platforms: DOAJ, LILACS, MEDLINE, SciELO, SCOPUS and Web of Science. Results: Data were organized and presented in figures and tables. Of the 5740 studies found, 160 were available from DOAJ, 123 from LILACS, 3056 from MEDLINE, 28 from SciELO, 834 from SCOPUS and 1539 from the Web of Science. However, after reading, only those who met the criteria for inclusion and exclusion described in the methodology remained, 9 studies. Conclusion: It is observed that institutions are not ready to put people with mental disorders on the street, return them to their homes or expose them to therapeutic homes, without any support from the network.
