Abstract

The purpose of this study is to analyze the contribution of counseling services at the Correctional Center (Bapas) in supporting the social reintegration process of clients. As an institution that plays a crucial role in guiding inmates after their release from prison, Bapas has a responsibility to ensure that clients are able to function socially, psychologically, and economically in society. Counseling programs at Bapas are aimed at helping clients understand the social and legal consequences of criminal acts, change their life orientation, and improve the social skills necessary to adapt to their new environment. This study uses a literature review method with secondary data as the primary basis. Secondary data were obtained from various written sources, such as books, scientific journals, research reports, census results, and articles. An evaluation of the program's effectiveness indicates that the success of the service is strongly influenced by internal and external factors, such as client readiness, family support, the competence of the community counselor, the availability of facilities, and the responsiveness of the social environment. The study also reveals that structured, professional, and ongoing counseling and supervision can reduce the risk of recidivism and increase the chances of successful social reintegration. Thus, Bapas services play a strategic role in rebuilding clients' lives and strengthening social security in the community.

Abstract

Development extension is a communication and learning process aimed at improving community knowledge, skills, and participation in current sustainable development programs. This article aims to analyze the factors supporting the success of development extension strategies in the agricultural sector. A literature review was conducted using various relevant domestic studies. The results of the study indicate that the success of extension programs depends on various factors, including the extension workers, the targets, the methods and media used, the materials delivered, and support from relevant institutions. Extension worker performance is influenced by work experience and available facilities; target characteristics influence the level of participation in the program; methods and media significantly influence innovation adoption; the quality of materials determines the effectiveness of information delivery; and institutional support determines the sustainability of extension programs. Thus, the success of development extension programs cannot be seen from a single aspect but requires cooperation from all parties involved to achieve development goals optimally.

Abstract

Various community empowerment programs in rural areas have been carried out by the government. However, some of these programs are less successful in improving the socio-economic conditions of the community because they set aside the approach of local wisdom based on locality culture that applies to the community, where the empowerment program is implemented. This study article aims to illustrate how local wisdom can be effectively applied in community empowerment programs in rural areas to support poverty alleviation efforts in rural Indonesia. is one of the important approaches that is increasingly being applied in poverty alleviation efforts in Indonesia. This research aims to systematically examine various scientific literature related to the implementation, obstacles, and success of community empowerment programs that make local cultural values the main basis. The method used in this study is Systematic Literature Review (SLR) in several national and international journals published during the last 5 years. The results of the study show that community empowerment programs in rural areas that use a local wisdom approach based on local cultural values are more effective in increasing economic independence, strengthening social solidarity, and developing the capacity of rural communities compared to programs that are top-down and pay less attention to the socio-cultural aspects of the local community. Some of the key factors that support the program's success include active community participation, strong local leadership, cross-sector cooperation, and program sustainability. Thus, the approach based on local wisdom can be understood not only as a supporting element but as the basis of the approach to realize sustainable and equitable community empowerment.
