<![CDATA[Dalu XA Village is an industrial zone in Deli Serdang Regency that faces the phenomenon of a high number of school dropouts working in the factory sector due to family economic pressure. This condition raises two main problems, namely the vulnerability of economic exploitation and violence against children which are often considered as internal family problems even though they violate the Child Protection Law, and the factory work environment (pollution, chemicals, heavy machinery) that is not in accordance with the child's anatomy so that it threatens physical and psychological growth and development permanently. This service activity aims to increase legal awareness and public health in Dalu XA Village through four stages: preparation (partner coordination and module preparation), implementation (Focus Group Discussion, legal and health counseling, anonymous reporting simulation), mentoring (simple health screening and initiation of complaint units at the Village Hall), and evaluation and reporting. The results of the activity showed an increase in participants' understanding of criminal sanctions for child exploitation, working age limits, and health risks in the work environment, as well as the formation of an initial commitment of village officials to develop child protection policies at the village level. This activity supports the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) Goal 1 (No Poverty) and Goal 3 (Healthy and Prosperous Life).]]>
