<![CDATA[The One Family One Graduate (1K1S) program is a Surabaya City Government policy aimed at expanding access to higher education for poor families as an effort to address educational inequality and break the chain of poverty through the provision of scholarships and supporting facilities. This study aims to analyze the implementation of the 1K1S program in Surabaya City and identify supporting and inhibiting factors. The method used is a descriptive qualitative approach with data collection techniques through interviews, observation, and documentation. The results of the study indicate that the program's implementation has been running quite well, indicated by the clarity of policy objectives, the commitment of the local government and adequate resource support in program implementation. This program is able to help students from underprivileged families in accessing higher education through educational financing, the provision of dormitories, and academic and non-academic guidance. Obstacles encountered in implementing this program include, the program is not widely participated in by the community, indicating the limited reach of information received by the program's targets, differences in the mechanisms and student admission processes at each partner university that affect the smooth implementation, and students who receive benefits also face social and psychological challenges in the campus environment. Overall, the study concluded that the 1K1S Program has great potential to expand access to higher education and improve the quality of human resources, but its success requires strengthening public communication, ongoing mentoring support, and increasing accountability for program implementation.]]>
