Abstract

Peer counseling is a school-based support strategy that can strengthen students' access to early psychosocial assistance through trained peers. This community service activity aimed to assess changes in the skills of prospective peer counselors before and after training at SMP Negeri 3 Ujung Batu. Twenty-three students selected by the guidance and counseling teacher based on personal characteristics, willingness to participate, and communication ability took part in participatory training consisting of material delivery, discussion, simulation, role play, practice, and mentoring. Skills were assessed using pretest and posttest measurements and analyzed descriptively using frequencies and percentages. The proportion of participants categorized as having good skills increased from 12 students (52.1%) before training to 19 students (82.6%) after training, an increase of 30.5 percentage points. These findings indicate that the training was followed by an improvement in the prospective peer counselors' skills. Periodic training, supervision, and mentoring are recommended to maintain and strengthen peer counseling capacity at school.
