<![CDATA[This study examines the crucial role of caregivers in shaping and enhancing the religious character of resident students at LKSA Ar Fakhrudin Muhammadiyah Ponorogo. Most of these students, equivalent to high school age, come from families with limited understanding of Islamic teachings. Caregivers not only provide theoretical guidance but also serve as role models actively involved in the students' daily lives. The study aims to explore (1) the role of caregivers in enhancing the religious character at LKSA and (2) the implications of this role for character development. A qualitative research method with a case study approach was employed, involving interviews with the head of LKSA, caregivers, and resident students, as well as observation and documentation. Data were analyzed using Miles, Huberman, and Saldana's framework, encompassing data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The findings reveal that caregivers act as mentors, motivators, and educators, resulting in increased sincerity, obedience, responsibility, independence, creativity, and respect among the students.]]>
