Abstract

Children living in orphanages face various psychological pressures, such as the loss of attachment figures, unstable social dynamics, and difficulty expressing emotions adaptively. These conditions require appropriate coping strategies to build emotional resilience. This community service activity utilizes a Service Learning (SL) approach, which integrates academic learning with community service. It aims to provide psychoeducation on emotions and coping strategies, and implements expressive writing as a means of emotional processing. The activity methods included interactive lectures, a pretest and posttest to measure understanding, an expressive writing therapy session, and a reflective interview at the end of the activity. Results showed an increase in understanding of emotions and coping strategies, as evidenced by improved posttest scores. Furthermore, expressive writing helped children express previously suppressed emotions, reduced psychological tension, and fostered a sense of relief, calm, and insight into personal problems. Overall, expressive writing has proven effective as a coping strategy in building emotional resilience in orphanage children, and the Service Learning approach has the potential for sustainable application in psychosocial support programs.

Abstract

This  study explores the motivational factors that encourage students from Kudus who are studying at UIN Walisongo Semarang to join KMKS (Keluarga Mahasiswa Kudus Semarang), a regional student community that serves as a social and emotional support system for migrant students. Increased mobility in higher education often places migrant students in situations requiring significant academic, social, and cultural adjustment, making social support and a sense of belonging critical. Guided by McClelland’s theory of needs, this research aims to identify how the need for achievement, affiliation, and power is reflected in students’ experiences as members of KMKS. This study employs a qualitative phenomenological approach involving five participants selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews and analyzed using thematic analysis. The findings reveal that students primarily join KMKS to fulfill strong affiliative needs, such as seeking social connectedness, emotional comfort, familiarity, and a supportive environment among peers from the same region. Additionally, participation in KMKS contributes to personal development, including increased confidence, improved communication skills, and readiness to take organizational responsibilities. The needs for achievement and power appear indirectly through involvement in committees, leadership roles, and contributions to organizational development. KMKS also functions as a crucial coping resource, helping students reduce stress, loneliness, and adaptation difficulties. The implications of this study highlight the importance of regional student communities as a meaningful support system for migrant students, emphasizing their role in facilitating adaptation, strengthening social identity, and fostering personal growth.
