<![CDATA[The purpose of this study was to understand in depth the implementation of the PATBM program in dealing with acts of violence against children in Tegal Kertha Village. The research method used is descriptive qualitative with data collection techniques including observation, interviews, and documentation. This study was studied using the theory of program implementation by Charles O. Jones which consists of: Organization, Interpretation, and Application. The results of the study indicate that the implementation of the PATBM program has been carried out by PATBM Tegal Kertha but has not been fully implemented optimally. Deficiencies are still found in the organizational indicators that still experience obstacles in the aspect of human resources, namely the difficulty of recruiting volunteers and budget limitations in implementing the program, the interpretation indicator that still has obstacles, namely the uneven distribution of socialization given to the community and the application indicator that has not been met because there is no definite schedule for providing socialization of the PATBM program to the community. Recommendations for these problems include the need to strengthen human resources, find alternative sources of program funding, increase socialization of the PATBM program and provide online complaints.
