Objective:
Validate an instrument to evaluate the community component of the integrated care strategy for prevalent childhood diseases (IMCI).
Method:

The construction validation was carried out through the Exploratory Factor Analysis, with the Main Factors method, the Bartlett sphericity test and the measurement of the sampling adequacy of Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin (KMO coefficient) were performed using the SPSS statistical package. version 22.0.
Results:
According to the values obtained in domains 1 (basic sanitation), 3 (breastfeeding and complementary feeding), 4 (immunizations), 5 (warning signs), 11 (care of pregnant women) and 13 (AIDS), the main axis factorization method was applied. In domain 7 (accident prevention) the principal component factorization method was performed.
