Abstract

The role of the village government is very important in supporting the successful implementation of the BLTS Kesra Program, especially in the verification process and distribution of assistance. However, the implementation of the program still faces obstacles in the form of less than optimal socialization to the community and limited information transparency. This study aims to describe and analyze the optimization of the role of the village government as the implementer of the BLTS Kesra program. This study uses a descriptive qualitative method. Informants were determined through a purposive sampling technique involving the Acting Village Head, the Head of Services, 12 RT Chairs, and three community members. Data was collected through observation, interviews, and documentation using interview guidelines, observation sheets, and supporting documents. Data analysis was carried out through data collection, data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawn. The results of the study showed that the village government has played a role as a motivator, facilitator, and mobilizer in the implementation of the BLTS Kesra Program. However, socialization to the community and the delivery of information are still not optimal, so it has the potential to cause misunderstandings. This study concludes that the role of the village government supports the implementation of the BLTS Kesra Program, but in improving public communication, information transparency, and program governance, it is necessary to improve the implementation of social assistance appropriately and optimally.
