In Colombia, the civil war has generated family displacement, leading to experiences of social and cultural uprooting. The total Family Risk was determined in a group of 30 displaced Afro-descendant families, for which the RFT 5-33 instrument was used, with prior informed consent. The results show a predominance of nuclear families (40%), the predominance of threatened families (56%), especially in the dimensions of housing and neighborhood, socioeconomic situation, health practices and services, and psycho-affective conditions. The correlation showed that Total Family Risk has a strong correlation with health practices and services (0.888) and with the management of minors (0.86). The findings provide elements to implement family care actions in health promotion and prevention.
