<![CDATA[Domestic Violence (DV) and psychological trauma remain significant social and public health concerns that require comprehensive interventions, particularly among coastal communities with limited access to information and protection services. This Community Partnership Program (PKM) was designed to enhance the knowledge, awareness, and capacity of the coastal community of Lake Wette'e in preventing domestic violence and addressing psychological trauma through health education and digital technology-based interventions. The program was implemented through stakeholder coordination, module development, community outreach, health education sessions, cadre training, community mentoring, and the implementation of the SIPAKALEBI application (Empathy-Based Protection Information and Ready-to-Report System) as a platform for education, reporting, and referral services. The results demonstrated a substantial improvement in participants' knowledge, with the average score increasing from 58.4 in the pre-test to 85.7 in the post-test (a 45.0% increase). Community cadres and participants showed enhanced competencies in the early detection of domestic violence, identification of psychological trauma symptoms, and understanding of reporting and victim support mechanisms. The implementation of SIPAKALEBI received positive responses from participants as an innovative community-based digital solution for strengthening the protection of women and families. These findings, consistent with the broader evidence base on technology-assisted and community health worker-delivered interventions, indicate that the integration of health education, community empowerment, and digital technology is an effective strategy for strengthening domestic violence prevention and psychological trauma management at the community level.]]>
