The findings indicate that social services play a crucial role in providing social rehabilitation and programs aimed at improving the quality of life for people experiencing homelessness and those who beg. These programs include education, skills training, and psychological support designed to reintegrate them into society. Furthermore, this research emphasizes the importance of collaboration between the government and the community in creating a supportive environment for rehabilitation. In conclusion, this thesis highlights the need for effective interventions from social services to address the challenges faced by homeless individuals and beggars, while also promoting ongoing efforts to enhance their welfare in Pekanbaru.
