Data collection took place between February and June 2018 by means of interviews conducted with nurses from the Family Health Strategy working in quilombola communities in the Metropolitan Region of Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais, Brazil. The data underwent Content Analysis, via ATLAS.ti software, version 8. Results show that nursing professionals contributed to implementing the PNSIPN, acting on the following categories: establishing bonds; nurse in the community; recognizing the community’s specificities. Such aspects are important to implement the National Policy for the Integral Health of the Black Population in the community.
