This community service program aims to enhance the knowledge and skills of members of the Family Welfare Movement (PKK) in Neighborhood Association (RW) 04, Pasekan Lor Hamlet, in diversifying value-added processed catfish products, strengthening digital marketing capabilities, and improving business financial management skills. The program involved 22 participants and adopted a Participatory Rural Appraisal (PRA) approach comprising four stages: needs identification, training, evaluation, and mentoring. Program evaluation was conducted using pre-test and post-test assessments, with the data analyzed descriptively. The results demonstrate that the program successfully facilitated the diversification of fish bone-based products into five value-added food products: crackers, fish bone sticks, meatballs, dim sum, and shredded fish floss. In addition to acquiring food processing skills, participants developed competencies in product branding and packaging, social media-based digital marketing, cost of goods manufactured (COGM) calculations, selling price determination, and basic business financial recordkeeping. The pre-program and post-program assessments indicated improvements in participants' knowledge and skills, with a mean post-program score of 85. These achievements suggest that the program contributed to strengthening participants' capacity to develop locally based businesses by leveraging available local resources.
