The present study, based on human development in a context of diversity and inclusion and framed in concepts of social responsibility, describes the perceptions about the quality of life and the well-being of the families of the Confamilias solidarias de Manizales program, and of teachers of the Fundación Telefónica program in Neiva. The study is of a quantitative, non-experimental, descriptive, cross-sectional type. The collection instruments used were the survey and the focus group. In the analysis and interpretation of the study, empowerment was identified as the emerging category that gives meaning to the exercise. The question: What kind of subjects do social programs need? The conclusions address contributions for social responsibility.
