Abstract

Maternal anemia remains an important public health problem that increases the risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes and contributes to factors associated with impaired fetal growth. This community empowerment program aimed to empower pregnant women through the utilization of PISBRO cookies as a complementary food to support hemoglobin improvement and reduce risk factors for stunting. The program was implemented in Bangun Rejo Village, Tanjung Morawa District, Deli Serdang Regency, Indonesia, using a community empowerment approach that included health education, PISBRO cookie production training, consumption of PISBRO cookies together with iron supplementation, adherence monitoring, family support, and pre- and post-program hemoglobin assessment. Twenty-two pregnant women were recruited, and 20 completed the program. Mean adherence to PISBRO cookie consumption was 82.34±13.51%, with 65% of participants categorized as adherent, while 50% received good family support. Mean hemoglobin increased from 9.64±0.42 g/dL to 9.87±0.53 g/dL, with an average increase of 0.24±0.21 g/dL. Ninety percent of participants experienced increased hemoglobin levels, and Wilcoxon signed-rank testing demonstrated a significant difference before and after the program (p<0.001). The integrated community empowerment program combining PISBRO cookies, health education, iron supplementation, adherence monitoring, and family involvement showed potential to support early improvement in maternal hemoglobin. Greater family engagement and sustained follow-up are recommended to enhance program effectiveness.

Abstract

Adolescence is marked by biological, cognitive, social, and emotional changes that require adaptive emotional regulation skills. This community service program aimed to introduce emotional regulation concepts and initial practices to adolescents through Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) training focused on self-awareness and self-management. The program was conducted at a school in Cerme Lor Village, Gresik, and involved 100 senior high school students. Activities included material presentation, group discussions, identification of emotional triggers, breathing exercises, butterfly hug, simple relaxation, and the development of personal action plans. Evaluation was conducted descriptively through facilitator observations, participant reflections, and reviews of the personal action plans. All registered participants attended the program until completion, engaged in discussions and practical activities, and completed personal action plans containing emotional triggers, selected regulation strategies, and implementation plans. However, the program did not employ a pretest–posttest design, a validated emotional regulation instrument, or follow-up assessment. Therefore, the findings describe program implementation and participant engagement rather than evidence of improved emotional regulation skills. Future programs should include pre- and post-intervention assessments and periodic follow-up evaluations.

Abstract

Access to antenatal screening at the rural primary care level remains limited and may contribute to delayed identification of pregnancy-related abnormalities. This community service program aimed to support the optimization of access to basic ultrasound screening, facilitate initial antenatal assessment, and improve pregnant women’s knowledge in Bangun Rejo Village. A community-based evaluation using a one-group pre-test–post-test design involved all 26 eligible pregnant women through total sampling. The intervention integrated interactive maternal health education with free basic ultrasound examinations using a participatory clinical approach. Knowledge was assessed using a validated 30-item multiple-choice questionnaire administered before and immediately after the intervention. Basic ultrasound examinations identified cephalic presentation in 19 participants (73.1%) and breech or transverse presentation in 7 participants (26.9%) who were in the first or second trimester. All participants had adequate amniotic fluid volume and placental location in the uterine corpus; therefore, no abnormalities requiring immediate referral were identified in the assessed ultrasound parameters. The proportion of participants in the good knowledge category increased from 34.6% to 73.1%, while the poor category decreased from 42.3% to 3.8%. The Wilcoxon Signed-Rank Test indicated a significant difference in knowledge categories before and after the intervention (Z = −3.542; p < 0.001). The program facilitated access to basic ultrasound services during its implementation, supported initial antenatal screening, and improved participants’ short-term knowledge. Continued monitoring is required to assess knowledge retention, referral adherence, and pregnancy outcomes.

Abstract

This community service activity aimed to provide practical knowledge and hands-on experience to housewives and farmer group members in Siontapina Village in converting rice-washing water into liquid organic fertilizer (LOF). The activity was conducted on October 14, 2025, with 10 participants through socialization and direct demonstration. The formulation consisted of 600 mL of rice-washing water, one tablespoon of brown sugar (approximately 10 g), and 50 mL of EM4, followed by seven days of fermentation. Observation showed a cloudy yellow liquid with a distinctive fermented aroma resembling tape, a small amount of white foam, and gas pressure inside the container. The LOF was introduced for use after dilution at a 1:10 ratio. The activity demonstrates the potential of a simple household-resource-based technology, although chemical quality and effectiveness on plant growth were not examined.

Abstract

Domestic wastewater management, particularly greywater generated by bathing, laundry, and kitchen activities, is an important environmental concern in densely populated settlements such as Bungin Island in Sumbawa Regency, Indonesia. The direct discharge of untreated greywater into the surrounding environment may contribute to environmental pollution and increase exposure to environmental health risks. This community service program aimed to strengthen community knowledge, preparedness, and participation in household greywater management while introducing practical skills for operating a simple filtration-based treatment system. The program was conducted from May to July 2026 using a community-based approach that included education, training, technology demonstrations, and mentoring. A total of 20 participants participated, including village officials, members of the Village Consultative Body (BPD), neighborhood leaders (RT/RW), and community representatives. Program evaluation used pre-tests and post-tests, participatory observation, discussions, and participant feedback. Following the intervention, knowledge increased from 52.4% to 76.2%, community preparedness from 48.7% to 65.8%, village officials’ preparedness from 45.1% to 68.9%, and willingness to participate from 86.3% to 95.8%. The observed improvements indicate that the combination of education, technology demonstrations, and practical engagement enhanced participants’ knowledge, preparedness, and willingness to participate in household greywater management. However, the remaining gap in preparedness underscores the need for continued technical training, mentoring, and institutional support to strengthen participants’ capacity for independent, sustainable implementation of greywater management practices.

Abstract

Adolescence is a critical transition period requiring adequate understanding of reproductive health and nutrition to support early stunting prevention. This community service program was conducted in partnership with Sarah Private Vocational School, Bangun Rejo Village, Tanjung Morawa District, Deli Serdang Regency, and involved 32 participants (12 male and 20 female adolescents). The main challenges identified were limited understanding of reproductive health and limited interactive exposure to basic medical terminology. The program aimed to improve participants’ knowledge and health literacy through basic Midwifery English training and reproductive health education. The activities were implemented through interactive workshops and lectures, with participants’ knowledge evaluated using pre-test and post-test. The average score increased from 54.5 on the pre-test to 86.8 on the post-test, representing an increase of 32.3 points. These results indicate an improvement in participants’ understanding of reproductive health, stunting prevention, and basic medical terminology after participating in the program. The integration of basic Midwifery English therefore provides a potential complementary approach to preventive health education for adolescents.

Abstract

The spread of radical ideologies through digital media places senior high school students in an information environment requiring stronger civic values, legal awareness, and critical engagement with digital information. This community service program aimed to analyze participatory legal counseling in strengthening Pancasila values, religious moderation, and digital legal literacy as a preventive approach to radicalism. The program was conducted at MA Alkhairaat Ternate and involved 40 students from Grades X and XI through interactive lectures, discussions, question-and-answer sessions, and an evaluative quiz. Data were obtained through observation, documentation, and records of participants’ questions, responses, and answers, then analyzed descriptively and qualitatively. The findings indicate participant engagement during the interactive sessions, while several participants were able to articulate key points concerning diversity, radicalism, and caution in disseminating digital information. The “Filter before Sharing” principle connected digital legal literacy with responsible social media practices. These findings indicate participants’ initial understanding of the materials delivered, but do not constitute a quantitative measure of improved understanding or behavioral change because no pre-test or post-test was employed. Participatory legal counseling can serve as an educational space integrating Pancasila values, religious moderation, and digital legal literacy in preventive efforts against radicalism in schools.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the enforcement of environmental criminal law and the legal responsibility of perpetrators based on the analysis of an environmental crime case. This study employs a normative juridical research method using statutory and case approaches. The primary legal sources consist of Law Number 32 of 2009 concerning Environmental Protection and Management, Government Regulation Number 101 of 2014 concerning Management of Hazardous and Toxic Waste, and the Decision of the Sidoarjo District Court Number 673/Pid.Sus/2015/PN SDA. The legal materials were analyzed qualitatively through legal interpretation to examine the fulfillment of criminal elements, judicial considerations, and forms of legal responsibility imposed on the perpetrators. The findings indicate that environmental criminal law enforcement is implemented through criminal proceedings based on violations of hazardous and toxic waste management obligations. The court found that the defendant, as the owner of UD Mulya, was legally responsible for producing hazardous waste without proper management procedures. The study also reveals that effective environmental law enforcement requires not only criminal sanctions but also strengthened responsibility mechanisms and public legal awareness to support sustainable environmental protection.

Abstract

Fundamental motor skills (FMS) are an essential component of physical education in elementary schools; however, their development requires active, enjoyable, and contextually relevant learning activities. This Community Service (PKM) activity aimed to support the improvement of physical education teachers’ conceptual understanding, students’ learning engagement, and students’ fundamental movement skills through a Traditional Games Festival as part of the 2025 Thematic Student Community Service (KKN-T) program. The program employed a participatory approach through practical guidance and a traditional games festival involving 135 participants, including elementary school students, physical education teachers, field supervisors, and university students from the Physical Education, Health, and Recreation Study Program at STKIP Citra Bakti. Evaluation employed a pretest–posttest design. The results showed that teachers’ conceptual understanding increased from 62.33% to 85.67% (23.34 percentage points), students’ learning engagement from 64.64% to 90.52% (25.88 percentage points), and students’ FMS from 62.68% to 83.71% (21.03 percentage points). These findings indicate positive changes following the program and suggest that a Traditional Games Festival has the potential to support active, enjoyable, and contextually relevant physical education learning.
