Abstract

Mental health is an integral component of overall health that affects individuals’ social, emotional, and productive functioning. However, mental health literacy in the community remains relatively low, as indicated by limited understanding of mental health concepts, early signs of psychological problems, strategies for maintaining mental well-being, and the importance of seeking appropriate help. This condition may reinforce stigma and hinder promotive and preventive efforts in the community. This community service program aimed to improve mental health literacy through community-based psychological education. The program was implemented using an educational and participatory approach consisting of four stages: preparation, implementation, evaluation, and follow-up. The activities included health education sessions, interactive discussions, simple simulations, and community assistance. The evaluation was conducted using pre-tests and post-tests, observation of participants’ involvement, and participant feedback. The expected outcomes included improved public knowledge of mental health, increased ability to identify early signs of psychological problems, reduced stigma, and greater awareness of maintaining mental well-being and accessing appropriate support services. The indicators of success were reflected in the implementation of activities as planned, active participant engagement, and improved participants’ understanding after attending the program.

Abstract

Diarrhea remains a major health issue among children, particularly in developing countries, contributing significantly to morbidity and mortality in children under five years of age. High incidence is often associated with poor sanitation, inadequate hygiene practices, and limited caregiver knowledge regarding prevention. This community service program aimed to enhance parental and caregiver awareness of childhood diarrhea prevention through interactive education and handwashing demonstrations in the working area of Puskesmas Deli Tua. The program was conducted on Saturday, January 7, 2026, involving 55 participants who were parents or caregivers of children aged 1–5 years. The intervention comprised health education on the causes and risk factors of diarrhea, the importance of sanitation, and hygienic practices, coupled with practical demonstrations of handwashing based on the WHO seven-step method. Visual materials, including posters, leaflets, and educational stickers, were used to reinforce participants’ understanding. Data collection involved pre- and post-intervention assessments of knowledge and attitudes, as well as observation of handwashing practices. Results indicated a significant improvement in participants’ knowledge, attitudes, and skills; nearly all participants performed correct handwashing techniques and expressed commitment to consistently apply hygiene practices at home. These findings demonstrate that participatory educational approaches reinforced with practical demonstrations and visual aids are effective in promoting hygienic behavior and preventing childhood diarrhea. This program can serve as a model for community-based interventions aimed at improving child health outcomes in other areas with similar social and demographic characteristics.

This study employed a quantitative approach with a cross-sectional survey design. The population consisted of all 140 students of SMA YAPIM Biru-Biru, and all were selected as the sample using total sampling technique. Data were collected on February 17–20, 2026, through Likert-scale questionnaires. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, classical assumption tests, and multiple linear regression analysis. The results showed that mental health literacy had a positive and significant effect on students’ psychological well-being. School social support also had a positive and significant effect on psychological well-being. Likewise, academic self-efficacy was found to have a positive and significant effect on students’ psychological well-being. Simultaneously, mental health literacy, school social support, and academic self-efficacy significantly influenced students’ psychological well-being. The coefficient of determination indicated that these three independent variables contributed 42.0% to students’ psychological well-being, while the remaining 58.0% was influenced by other factors outside the study.
