The rising prevalence of mental health issues among adolescents, particularly stress and anxiety, necessitates effective interventions within the school environment. This community service program aims to identify and reduce anxiety and stress levels among 325 students at SMK Muhammadiyah Kartasura. The methodology involved initial surveys, in-depth interviews, and coping skills-based interventions. Evaluation results demonstrated a significant improvement in students' mental health: the "normal stress" category increased from 90% to 93.3%, while the prevalence of mild to moderate anxiety was successfully reduced from 8.2% to 2.7%. These findings confirm that integrated stress management interventions in schools effectively improve adolescent psychological well-being. This program recommends incorporating stress management into the school curriculum and fostering collaborative support between parents and the community to cultivate a mentally healthy educational environment.
