The objective of this paper is to explore how these mixtecas women, who live in a community from the mexican state of Guerrero, express their relationship with PROSPERA based on their own experience and, at the same time, to analyze potential expressions of structural violence towards them. Some interviews were applied to mixtecas women and ethnographic observations were made along the community. It was observed, based on the narrations of women´s experiences, that the State, through this program, exerts structural violence that ranges from the discourse of poverty to direct violence. Women named this direct violence as "mistreatment”, which is exercised by those in charge of carrying the program. All these puts women in dependency status and reproduces gender roles that have kept them at social disadvantage, vulnerability and inequality. Las mujeres que participan en el Programa de Inclusión Social PROSPERA en México, tienen tareas asignadas, que son extensión de las labores domésticas. El objetivo del presente trabajo es explorar la forma en que mujeres mixtecas, de una comunidad del estado de Guerrero, México, expresan su relación con este programa gubernamental, a partir de su propia experiencia y al mismo tiempo, analizar posibles expresiones de violencia estructural hacia ellas. Se entrevistó a mujeres participantes y se realizaron observaciones en la comunidad. Se pudo observar, con base en las narraciones de las experiencias de las mujeres, que el Estado, a través del PROSPERA, ejerce violencia estructural que va desde el discurso de pobreza hasta la violencia directa, percibida como “maltrato” y ejercida por quienes llevan a cabo el programa, lo que las pone en una situación de dependencia y reproduce el papel que las ha mantenido en desventaja, vulnerabilidad y desigualdad.
