description This research correlating variables, sense of community and social support, in a group of 136 persons displacement by violence; and disaster victims of the winter season 2010-2011 in the department of Magdalena. The instruments used to measure the variables were, the Scale of Sense of Community and the Social Support Questionnaire – MOS (Medical Outcomes Study – Social Support Survey) adapted for Colombia. For the analysis of the data, they were divided into two groups: the first with 48 men between 26 and 89 years (mean 57 years) and 36 women between 23 and 87 years (mean 55 years). In the second group they involved 44 men between 25 and 91 years (mean 58 years) and 8 women between 23 and 49 years (mean 36 years). As the rate of sense of community it was found that the level is medium-high (m = 53,42), the social support it was found that the overall rate of social support is high (87,41). A weak relationship was found, a positive correlation coefficient 0.27 and significant (P value of 0.01). We conclude that the two variables interact with each other but with a weak relationship.
