The research design uses a qualitative descriptive method. Collecting data using observation techniques, interviews and documentation. Meanwhile, data analysis was carried out through data reduction, data presentation and drawing conclusions. This study reveals that the movement for community participation in overcoming the inadequacy of residential houses is driven by social values, namely Bari. The transformation of new values first emerged from the awareness of the limited access to the economy of the people, whose professions are farmers and fishermen.
