Through this program the elderly are expected to apply 7 dimensi lansia tangguh so that the elderly are physically, emotionally, spiritually, intellectually, socially, professionally vocational and environmentally empowered.

However, in Sumbersari Village, Moyudan, Sleman, out of five BKLs already established, only one BKL, BKL Mugi Waras, with a paripurna status that applied 7 dimensi lansia tangguh in its activities.
