This community service activity was carried out as part of the Student Community Service Program (KKM) in Kaserangan Village, Ciruas Subdistrict, Serang Regency, with a focus on empowering PKK women through training in chenille stem crafts. This activity aimed to improve participants’ skills and creativity while introducing the potential of handicrafts as a source of additional income. The method used was a participatory approach involving 25 PKK members through several stages, including program introduction, pre-tests, preparation of tools and materials, hands-on practice, mentoring, and post-tests.
