Empowerment is a process by which people gain mastery over their lives, learning knowledge to make decisions about their health. Increasingly common, chronic diseases are present in the health service, requiring the attention of health professionals and empowering of the affected by it. This study aimed to analyze the perceptions of users with chronic diseases and followed at the Family Health Strategy about empowerment. This was a qualitative study in which were developed open interviews and systematic observation. Data analysis used the NVIVO software. Users indicate the existence of some geographical barriers in access to health. They caused fatigue, disincentive and low continuity of care. It was observed that adherence and care practice were linked to the differentiated service, based on trust and respect the wishes of users. These consider the guidance and health education as key elements to encourage the practice of self-care. It is necessary to restructure the conduct of health professionals involved in the Family Health Strategy because it has how function to promote health in a logical intersectoral and interdisciplinary.
