<![CDATA[This study describes Community Corrections Officer (PK) assistance in diversion for children in conflict with the law at Class II Pekalongan Correctional Center and its reported effects. The study was prompted by a wide service area and limited PK capacity; 23 children received assistance from January to April 2026. A descriptive qualitative design was used, with observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation involving six purposively selected informants: two PK, two children, and two parents. Data were analyzed through reduction, display, and conclusion drawing using role theory. PK assistance appeared through five roles—facilitator, mediator, negotiator, motivator, and coordinator—and was associated with psychological reassurance, legal-rights support, improved family relations, and social and educational continuity. Outcomes varied with PK involvement, victim-family readiness, and staffing constraints]]>
