Abstract

This study examines the issue of low self-efficacy and self-confidence among Children in Conflict with the Law during their rehabilitation at Pusat Pelayanan Sosial Griya Bina Karsa. The research aims to identify the role of self-efficacy in improving children’s confidence and abilities throughout the rehabilitation process. Using a qualitative case study approach, data were collected through in-depth interviews and observations involving child clients, community counselors, and social workers. The findings reveal that interventions such as skills training, non-formal education, and social support play a significant role in enhancing children’s self-efficacy. These efforts help improve their confidence, adaptability, and readiness to reintegrate into society while reducing the risk of reoffending. The development of self-efficacy occurs gradually through strengthening motivational, cognitive, and emotional aspects. These findings highlight that self-efficacy is a crucial foundation for building positive behavior and supporting successful social reintegration among children undergoing rehabilitation. Keywords: Self-Efficacy; Self-Confidence; Ability; Children in Conflict with the Law

Abstract

This study highlights the importance of fostering independence and empowerment among correctional clients in Indonesia, particularly in response to high crime rates associated with low education levels and unstable employment. The empowerment process is implemented through vocational training at the Pak Kumis Bicycle Workshop under the supervision of the Purwokerto Probation Board. Using a descriptive qualitative case study approach, data were collected through in-depth interviews, observations, and documentation involving clients, correctional officers, members of the Pokmas Lipas group, and clients’ families. The findings show that Pokmas Lipas plays a significant role in supporting clients by providing technical skills, psychosocial encouragement, and the development of positive work attitudes. As a result, clients demonstrate improved competence, confidence, discipline, and readiness to live independently after completing their correctional programs. The program also contributes to faster and smoother social reintegration into the community. However, several challenges remain, including inconsistent discipline among clients, limited training facilities, unclear legal status of Pokmas Lipas, and low community involvement. Overall, the study concludes that vocational training through Pokmas Lipas is highly beneficial in strengthening the independence and skills of correctional clients, although improvements in resources, institutional support, and community acceptance are still needed to optimize its impact.

Abstract

This study analyzes efforts to improve the quality of inmates through educational programs implemented at the Class I Detention Center (Rutan) Surakarta. The research is based on the principle that education is a fundamental right for all citizens, including inmates, and plays a key role in supporting their rehabilitation and reintegration into society. Using a qualitative descriptive approach, data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation. The findings show that the institution has implemented various formal and non-formal education programs, including package education (levels A, B, and C), skills training, as well as personality and independence development activities. These programs contribute significantly to character building, skill enhancement, and preparing inmates for life after release. However, the implementation of these programs faces several challenges, particularly limited facilities and infrastructure, as well as a shortage of supporting human resources. Despite these constraints, collaboration between correctional officers, inmates, and external partners has enabled the programs to run effectively and provide tangible benefits, including improved self-reliance and reduced tendencies toward reoffending. In conclusion, educational programs in correctional institutions play a crucial role in inmate development. It is recommended that the institution continue to innovate in learning methods and strengthen partnerships with stakeholders to ensure the sustainability and effectiveness of rehabilitation programs. Keywords: Inmate Quality Improvement; Educational Program; Social Reintegration
