One of the aspects pointed out since the First World Assembly for Aging is the family and the households. Its importance is related to the changes observed in the 20th century, regarding the composition of households and their support function for the elderly. This article presents the way in which the different international, regional and national political instruments have ad dressed the family and the households, as well as the developments of the implementation of the actions of the national policy of aging and old age. It has the aim of showing the tensions that exist between residential changes in old age and actions oriented towards the regulation of their implications, in a rights perspective. The identification of the advances and tensions of the implementation of the national policy constitutes a contribution to the process of the public institutionality of aging and residential arrangements, and the gaps are pointed between social habits and the regulatory frameworks that regulate and guide them. The sources for this work were institutional documents, interviews with professionals who have worked in the formulation and implementation of national policy, and academics who are dedicated to the investigation of aging and old age in the country.
