Abstract

The increasing use of social media provides various benefits to society but also presents several risks, including misinformation, online fraud, misuse of personal data, and threats to account security. This community service activity aimed to improve participants’ understanding of digital literacy and the safe and responsible use of social media. The activity was conducted in Kuala Tungkal, Tanjung Jabung Barat Regency, Jambi Province, involving 30 participants consisting of youth, homemakers, micro, small, and medium enterprise (MSME) actors, and village officials. The program was carried out through outreach sessions, interactive discussions, demonstrations, simulations, and hands-on practice, while the evaluation employed a one-group pre-test–post-test design. Five indicators were assessed, namely digital literacy, social media account security, personal data protection, identification of misinformation and online fraud, and social media ethics. The data were analyzed descriptively by comparing the mean pre-test and post-test scores. The results showed that the participants’ average score increased from 56.4 on the pre-test to 85.2 on the post-test, representing an increase of 28.8 points. Improvements were observed across all indicators, with the largest increases found in social media account security and the identification of misinformation and online fraud. These findings indicate an improvement in participants’ understanding after participating in the digital literacy activity. Further evaluation is needed to assess the sustainability of this understanding and its application to digital security practices in everyday social media use.

Abstract

Exclusive breastfeeding during the first six months of life is an important strategy to improve children's health, growth, and development. The success of exclusive breastfeeding is not only determined by the mother's ability to breastfeed but also influenced by family support, particularly the involvement of fathers as Breastfeeding Fathers. This community service activity aimed to improve fathers' knowledge, skills, and involvement in supporting exclusive breastfeeding through the Ayah ASI Program, which combined interactive education, practical skill training, and digital mentoring. The activity was conducted in July 2026 in Koto Tinggi Village, the working area of Rambah Public Health Center, Rokan Hulu Regency. A total of 35 participants participated in the program, consisting of 15 married couples, 3 community health cadres, and 2 health workers. The main evaluation involved 15 fathers using a one-group pre-test post-test design. Data were collected through knowledge questionnaires and observation checklists of breastfeeding support skills. The results showed an improvement in fathers' knowledge after the intervention. The proportion of participants with good knowledge increased from 3 respondents (20%) before education to 12 respondents (80%) after education. The skill assessment showed that 12 respondents (80%) achieved a good practice category and 3 respondents (20%) achieved a moderate category in providing breastfeeding support and performing basic skills such as oxytocin massage simulation. In addition, the Ayah ASI Digital community was established as a communication and early mentoring platform after the intervention. The Ayah ASI Program demonstrates that a family-based educational approach can improve fathers' initial capacity to support breastfeeding mothers. However, further evaluation is needed to assess the sustainability of behavioral changes and the long-term contribution of the program to exclusive breastfeeding success.

Abstract

Menopause is a life phase characterized by biological, psychological, social, and sexual function changes. Sexual dysfunction among menopausal women is not solely associated with hormonal changes but is also influenced by psychological factors, partner relationships, and cultural norms. This community service program aimed to improve menopausal women's knowledge and skills in understanding and managing sexual dysfunction through a biopsychosocial community empowerment approach. The program was conducted on July 31, 2026, in Talikumain Village, the working area of Tambusai Public Health Center, involving 33 menopausal women. A participatory approach was applied through health education, interactive discussions, demonstrations, practical training of relaxation techniques, pelvic floor muscle training, acupressure practices, intimate communication strategies, mentoring, and evaluation. Evaluation was conducted through process observation, participant discussions, knowledge evaluation, skill observation, and participant responses. The results indicated that participants demonstrated improved understanding of menopausal changes, biopsychosocial factors affecting sexual function, and self-care strategies. Participants were able to follow relaxation and pelvic floor muscle training practices and showed increased openness in discussing menopausal sexual health issues. The program also produced educational materials such as modules and leaflets and strengthened the initial role of health cadres in supporting sustainable menopausal health education. However, this program did not include clinical measurements of sexual function and long-term follow-up evaluation; therefore, further studies are needed to assess its effectiveness on sexual function outcomes.

Abstract

Noncommunicable diseases, particularly hypertension and diabetes mellitus, remain a public health issue in Kepuharjo Village. This situation highlights the need for promotive and preventive efforts through increased knowledge and early detection of disease risk factors. This community service activity aims to improve the community’s knowledge of hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and the CERDIK behavior as a means of preventing noncommunicable diseases, as well as to raise awareness about the importance of regular health checkups. The activity was conducted in Jambu Hamlet, Kepuharjo Village, Cangkringan Subdistrict, Sleman Regency, involving 30 participants consisting of women of childbearing age and the elderly. The activity methods included participant registration; measurement of body weight, height, waist circumference, blood pressure, and random blood glucose levels; completion of a pre-test; health education; discussions; distribution of leaflets; and completion of a post-test. A descriptive analysis was conducted by comparing knowledge scores before and after the education session. The average knowledge score increased from 68.33 on the pre-test to 99.33 on the post-test. A total of 28 participants scored 100 and two participants scored 90 on the post-test. Descriptively, the activity demonstrated an increase in participants’ knowledge following the health education and health screenings. Similar activities need to be implemented on an ongoing basis, involving community health workers and the Non-Communicable Disease Screening Posts (Posbindu), to strengthen prevention and early detection efforts in the community
