Abstract

HIV/AIDS remains a serious health problem, not only from a medical perspective but also socially, especially related to stigma in society. Adolescents, as a productive age group, often have limited and incorrect knowledge about HIV/AIDS, which can lead to negative stigma toward people living with HIV/AIDS. This community service activity aimed to improve adolescents' knowledge and reduce stigma through health education at Harapan Health Center. The method used was health education with a pretest-posttest approach involving 24 adolescents. The materials included the definition of HIV/AIDS, modes of transmission, prevention, and the impact of stigma. The results showed an increase in participants' knowledge after the education, as indicated by the comparison of pretest and posttest scores. In addition, participants showed a more positive attitude toward people living with HIV/AIDS. In conclusion, health education is effective in improving knowledge and reducing stigma among adolescents regarding HIV/AIDS.

Abstract

Adolescence is a transitional period that is vulnerable to risky behavior, including promiscuous sex. Lack of knowledge about HIV/AIDS can increase the risk of unsafe sexual behavior, which can potentially lead to HIV/AIDS transmission in adolescents. This study aims to determine the relationship between knowledge about HIV/AIDS and promiscuous sexual behavior in adolescents. This study used a quantitative design with a cross-sectional approach. The sample consisted of 61 students majoring in Nursing Assistant at SMK YPKP, selected using an accidental sampling technique. The research instruments consisted of an HIV/AIDS knowledge questionnaire and a Guttman scale questionnaire on promiscuity behavior. Data were analyzed univariately and bivariately using the Chi-Square test. The results showed that most respondents had sufficient knowledge about HIV/AIDS (78.7%) and negative promiscuity behavior (54.1%). Statistical tests showed a significant relationship between knowledge about HIV/AIDS and promiscuity behavior in adolescents (p-value = 0.000). All respondents with good knowledge (21.3 %) had positive promiscuity behavior. There is a significant relationship between knowledge about HIV/AIDS and adolescent sexual behavior. Good knowledge plays a crucial role in developing positive and safe sexual behavior.

Abstract

Family Medicinal Plants (TOGA) are plants with medicinal properties and are cultivated in home gardens as a form of community self-reliance in maintaining health and preventing disease. The lack of public knowledge regarding the types of TOGA, their processing methods, and their uses is a key reason for implementing this community service program. This activity aims to increase community knowledge and skills regarding the use of TOGA as a preventative measure against various common diseases. The program was implemented among 45 families in Suka Jaya Village through outreach, demonstrations, TOGA planting practices, and mentoring in the preparation of simple herbal concoctions. Evaluation was conducted using pre- and post-tests, practical observations, and interviews. The results of the activity showed a significant increase in community knowledge, from an average score of 52.6 to 88.4 after the education. Eighty-five percent of participants were able to practice TOGA planting, and 78% made simple concoctions such as warm ginger, tamarind turmeric, and lemongrass tea. The community considered the program very beneficial and wanted similar activities to continue regularly. This program can increase community awareness and self-reliance in maintaining health. The use of traditional medicinal plants (TOGA) is considered effective as a disease prevention measure and supports a healthy, natural, and affordable lifestyle. This initiative is recommended for implementation in other regions and further development through further training.
