This study analyzes the limitations and challenges in the application of socio- educational measures to juvenile offenders in Brazil, highlighting their inefficacy in social reintegration and the mitigation of recidivism. The research emphasizes the structural precariousness of socio-educational institutions, the absence of effective post-measure support policies, and social stigma as barriers to reintegration. A qualitative methodology is employed, based on a bibliographic review and documentary analysis, supported by regulations from the Statute of the Child and Adolescent (ECA) and institutional reports. The findings indicate the need for structural reforms in the socio-educational system, the implementation of alternative models such as Restorative Justice, and the strengthening of public policies that promote the social and professional inclusion of these adolescents. For socio-educational measures to fulfill their rehabilitative function, coordinated efforts between the State, society, and private institutions are essential, ensuring effective mechanisms for social reintegration and the reduction of juvenile delinquency.
