Family conflicts triggered by inheritance distribution issues are a common phenomenon in society, primarily due to a lack of understanding of applicable inheritance laws, both according to Islamic law and positive law in Indonesia. This community service activity aims to provide inheritance law education to members of a religious study group in Medan Johor District as a preventative measure against potential family conflicts. Implementation methods included lectures, interactive discussions, and relevant case studies, with legal experts as resource persons. The results of the activity showed an increased understanding of the participants regarding the basic principles of inheritance law and the importance of open communication within families regarding the distribution of inheritance. This education is expected to be the first step in building legal awareness and realizing family harmony in the Medan Johor community.

Dating violence among adolescents is a phenomenon that is often unnoticed and hidden behind relationships considered to be normal. Many adolescents get caught in unhealthy relationships due to a lack of understanding about boundaries and the types of violence that can occur in dating relationships, such as physical, verbal, emotional, and sexual abuse. Dating violence is often seen as part of the normal dynamics of a relationship, but it can have significant negative impacts on the mental and physical health of adolescents involved. This study aims to provide education on the importance of recognizing signs of dating violence and to encourage adolescents to build healthy, equitable relationships. Through educational activities, it is hoped that adolescents can increase their awareness of dating violence, understand the importance of boundaries, and gain the courage to take action if they or their partners experience violence. This education also aims to foster empathy, respect, and healthy communication skills between adolescent couples. The education provided includes information that helps adolescents recognize the different forms of violence and how to avoid them. It also emphasizes the importance of open communication and mutual support in relationships. With good communication skills, adolescents are expected to resolve conflicts constructively and keep their relationships positive. Values of equality and mutual respect in relationships are also introduced to ensure that both partners feel valued and respected. With a better understanding of healthy relationships, it is hoped that adolescents will be able to make better decisions in their relationships. Through ongoing education, dating violence can be prevented from an early age. This will allow adolescents to engage in safer, more respectful, and positive relationships, while reducing the negative effects of dating violence.

This research examines in-depth legal protection against cybercrime in Indonesia, with a specific focus on ransomware attacks. It also evaluates the 2025 Draft Cyber Security and Resilience Law (RUU KKS) as a measure to strengthen the national cyber defense system. The increase in ransomware cases targeting personal data, public institutions, and vital infrastructure has posed a serious threat to information security and national stability. Although the 2008 Electronic Information and Transactions Law (UU ITE) and the 2022 Personal Data Protection Law (UU PDP) serve as the legal basis, these two regulations do not yet specifically and comprehensively regulate ransomware. This results in challenges in law enforcement and victim protection, both in technical aspects, coordination, and human rights protection. The research method used is normative legal with a qualitative approach, which includes analysis of primary and secondary legal materials, as well as comparisons with regulations in several countries that have more mature ransomware handling mechanisms. The analysis of the 2025 Cyber Security Bill (RUU KKS) indicates that this draft regulation has the potential to strengthen the authority of cyber authorities, mandate reporting of cyber incidents, and impose stricter sanctions on perpetrators. However, implementing this policy requires effective cross-agency coordination, transparent oversight, and synergy between the public and private sectors. This study concludes that the 2025 Cyber Security Bill (RUU KKS) represents a strategic step in building a national cybersecurity system that is adaptive, integrated, and responsive to evolving cyber threats. However, its success will depend heavily on improving public digital security literacy, multi-sectoral collaboration, investment in detection and prevention technology, and guaranteeing human rights protection. These findings are expected to provide input for policymakers in formulating comprehensive and sustainable cybersecurity regulations as a bulwark of national defense in the digital era.

Preventing and addressing bullying in schools is crucial for creating a safe and supportive educational environment for student development. Bullying, whether physical, verbal, or psychological, can have long-term impacts on the mental and emotional well-being of students who are victims. This study aims to explore strategies implemented by schools to address and prevent bullying, and to analyze the challenges faced in implementing these strategies. The research employed a descriptive qualitative approach with a case study approach in several schools in Indonesia. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with principals, teachers, students, and parents, as well as observations of school programs. Document analysis of school policies on bullying was also conducted. The study found that although most schools have policies related to bullying, insufficient supervision and a lack of parental involvement in supporting these policies remain obstacles. Other factors influencing the effectiveness of bullying prevention are teacher awareness and skills in addressing students' social issues. This study recommends a community-based approach, in which all parties, from students, teachers, and parents, play an active role in creating an anti-bullying culture. Training programs for teachers and outreach to students regarding the negative impacts of bullying need to be improved. With stronger policies and increased awareness, it is hoped that bullying can be minimized and addressed, making schools a safe place for learning and development. Implementing this community-based approach is expected to create a culture that is free from bullying and provide better support for victims of bullying.

Stunting remains a chronic nutritional issue and a significant public health challenge in Indonesia, particularly in rural areas such as Jurang Village, Temanggung Regency. One of the key contributing factors to the high prevalence of stunting is the low level of maternal knowledge regarding balanced nutrition and the appropriate practice of providing supplementary feeding (Pemberian Makanan Tambahan or PMT) for children under five. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of PMT menu leaflet media as a tool to increase mothers’ knowledge and awareness regarding stunting prevention. The research was conducted through a series of community-based surveys during Posyandu (integrated health post) activities across several neighborhood units (Rukun Warga or RW). These surveys identified cases of stunting and assessed the educational needs of mothers with young children. Based on the findings, a culturally and contextually adapted leaflet was developed, containing essential information about stunting, its early signs, the importance of PMT, and practical, nutritious recipes made from locally available ingredients. To expand accessibility, the leaflet also included a QR code linked to a digital e-book featuring 54 variations of PMT menus. The educational materials were distributed through door-to-door visits, accompanied by the direct provision of supplementary food, enabling immediate practice of the knowledge shared. Post-intervention results showed a significant improvement in maternal understanding of stunting and nutrition, as well as positive feedback regarding the clarity, relevance, and usefulness of the leaflet. The culturally tailored approach and integration of digital resources further enhanced engagement and knowledge retention. In conclusion, the PMT leaflet proved to be an effective, practical, low-cost, and replicable educational intervention to support community-based stunting prevention efforts in Jurang Village. This approach offers a promising model for similar rural areas facing high stunting rates across Indonesia.

Maternal and Child Health (MCH) remains a major challenge in Indonesia's health sector, given the high maternal and infant mortality rates, largely caused by pregnancy complications. One obstetric complication that requires special attention is Premature Rupture of Membranes (PROM), as it can increase the risk of infection in the mother and fetus and contribute to preterm birth. This study aims to analyze maternal risk factors associated with PROM in the Uteun Pulo Community Health Center (Puskesmas), Seunagan Timur District, Nagan Raya Regency, in 2025. The research method used was a retrospective survey with a quantitative approach. Data collection was conducted through a review of medical records and structured interviews. Fifty-three pregnant women with PROM participated in the study. Data analysis used a chi-square correlation test to examine the relationship between the independent variables and PROM incidence. The results showed a significant association between maternal age and PROM incidence, with a p-value of 0.023 (p < 0.05). Furthermore, parity also had a significant association with the incidence of PROM, with a p-value of 0.013 (p < 0.05). Other findings showed a significant association between maternal age and the frequency of PROM, with a p-value of 0.028 (p < 0.05). These results indicate that maternal age and previous birth history are important factors that need to be considered in PROM prevention efforts in primary healthcare. These findings are expected to inform the development of intervention strategies and education for pregnant women to minimize the risk of pregnancy complications that lead to PROM.

Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) remains a significant public health challenge in Indonesia, with the increasing prevalence of cases every year. One of the key methods of controlling the spread of DHF is to target the vector, Aedes aegypti mosquitoes, by eradicating their larvae. However, the widespread and continuous use of chemical larvicides has raised concerns regarding the development of mosquito resistance and environmental pollution. This community service activity aimed to provide students at Duta Karya Vocational High School with knowledge and practical skills to use natural, eco-friendly alternatives for controlling mosquito larvae, focusing on papaya seeds (Carica papaya) and alum as natural larvicides. The methods for this activity included interactive counseling, a demonstration on how to produce larvicides using papaya seeds and alum, and an engaging question-and-answer session. Thirty 12th-grade students from the Pharmacy class participated in this activity. The results revealed that the activity was highly effective in increasing the students' understanding and practical ability to independently create and apply natural larvicides. The students expressed a high level of enthusiasm and interest in the topic, actively participating in the discussions and demonstrations. As a result of this community service, the school has expressed interest in incorporating this activity into its School Health Unit (UKS) work program, which will further promote the use of natural, sustainable methods for controlling mosquito populations. The students, now equipped with the necessary skills, are ready to become "jumantik" cadres—community health volunteers responsible for monitoring and preventing mosquito larvae development. This initiative also raised awareness about utilizing organic waste, such as papaya seeds, to create valuable products for the prevention of DHF.

The nutritional awareness of pregnant women in the Simpang Raya Community Health Center (Puskesmas) in Banggai Regency is still relatively low, necessitating educational efforts to increase their understanding of the importance of balanced nutrition during pregnancy. This community service activity aims to improve the knowledge of pregnant women through participatory and educational nutrition counseling held for one week in the Puskesmas hall. The methods used included interactive lectures, group discussions, and healthy menu preparation simulations, supported by leaflets adapted to the local context. A total of 40 pregnant women from various trimesters of pregnancy participated in the activity and were assessed using pre- and post-test instruments. The results of the activity showed a significant increase in participant knowledge, from 43% in the "good" category before the activity to 78% after the counseling. Most participants were able to understand the basic principles of balanced nutrition, identify food sources of important nutrients such as iron and folic acid, and prepare daily menus according to Ministry of Health guidelines. This improvement indicates that visual and interactive information delivery is easier for participants to understand, especially those with lower educational backgrounds. Furthermore, this activity also serves as a means of empowering pregnant women to be more active in maintaining their own and their fetus' health by choosing nutritious foods. Therefore, it is crucial for health workers at community health centers (Puskesmas) and integrated health post (Posyandu) cadres to continue this educational program on an ongoing basis. Structured, communicative, and participatory nutrition education is effective in increasing pregnant women's understanding and can be replicated periodically at other Posyandus (Integrated Health Posts) to support stunting prevention efforts and improve maternal and child health.

This literature review aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of homesickness, or homesickness, particularly experienced by first-year college students. The transition from home life to a new campus environment often causes psychological stress, especially for those living away from family for the first time. One form of this stress is homesickness, which can impact students' mental, social, and academic well-being. This study used a literature review method, a data collection and analysis technique that involves identifying, evaluating, and synthesizing the results of previous research. In this study, the authors reviewed 15 scientific articles that directly discussed homesickness, as well as one additional article that discussed the literature review method. The results indicate that homesickness is a complex emotional condition, characterized by feelings of sadness, loneliness, and impaired concentration that arise due to separation from a familiar home environment. Factors contributing to homesickness include a lack of social support, strong emotional attachment to family, and an inability to adapt to a new environment. The forms of homesickness can vary, from mild to disruptive to daily functioning. Symptoms can include physical complaints, sleep problems, and decreased motivation. Several prevention and management strategies that can be implemented include strengthening social support, developing coping skills, and campus-based psychological interventions. By understanding the characteristics of homesickness, it is hoped that campuses and students can take proactive steps to address it.

Hypertension is a chronic condition characterized by blood pressure exceeding the normal range, specifically 140/90 mmHg. One of the primary contributors to hypertension is insufficient potassium intake. Studies suggest that foods rich in potassium, such as pumpkin, can help regulate blood pressure. Pumpkin is an excellent source of potassium and dietary fiber, which are beneficial in managing hypertension. This health education program aimed to provide the Cot Paya community with knowledge about how pumpkin pudding can be used as a natural remedy to lower blood pressure. The method employed in this activity included a lecture followed by a question-and-answer session, allowing for an interactive exchange of information. The intervention focused on educating families and elderly individuals about the causes of hypertension, its impact on health, and the potential benefits of incorporating pumpkin pudding into their diet. The response from the Cot Paya community was positive, with many participants showing keen interest in the topic. Several parents and elderly residents actively engaged by asking questions related to hypertension and its management. The educational session not only improved awareness about hypertension but also provided practical knowledge on using pumpkin pudding as a dietary tool for managing high blood pressure. By the end of the session, participants demonstrated a better understanding of hypertension, its prevention, and the role of potassium-rich foods like pumpkin in reducing blood pressure. The activity was well-received and laid the foundation for continued health education within the community, particularly in promoting natural dietary interventions to prevent and manage hypertension.

This research investigates the enforcement of explosive fishing prohibitions under Indonesia's Fisheries Law No. 45 of 2009 in Tambelan District, Bintan Regency. The destructive practice of fish bombing, primarily conducted by external fishermen, causes severe marine ecosystem damage, particularly to coral reefs, while reducing local fishermen's catches. Using qualitative descriptive methodology, data were gathered through interviews, observations, and documentation involving law enforcement officials, Fisheries Civil Servant Investigators (PPNS), and fishing communities. The study applies Van Meter and Van Horn's policy implementation framework, analyzing policy objectives and standards, resources, implementing agency characteristics, implementer disposition, inter-organizational communication and coordination, plus social, economic, and political conditions. Results demonstrate suboptimal policy implementation due to resource constraints. Although violations have declined, this reduction does not guarantee future prevention, particularly given Tambelan District's severe infrastructure and facility limitations that hinder comprehensive policy execution. The research recommends strengthening surveillance capacity, conducting regular community outreach programs, and improving cross-sectoral coordination to enhance policy effectiveness and preserve marine resources in Tambelan District.

Money laundering is a serious crime that has a significant impact on economic and social stability, as well as the integrity of the financial system. This crime is often associated with serious crimes such as corruption, narcotics, and terrorism. Money laundering poses a major threat to national security, conceals the origin of illicit funds, and undermines a healthy economic system. To combat this crime, Indonesia has imposed criminal sanctions based on Law Number 8 of 2010, which aims to provide a deterrent effect on perpetrators and prevent similar crimes from occurring in the future. However, the effectiveness of these criminal sanctions remains a critical challenge, given the various difficulties in their enforcement, such as the complexity of tracking the flow of funds, limited law enforcement resources, and the increasingly sophisticated modus operandi of perpetrators who often work together with international networks. This study seeks to examine the effectiveness of criminal sanctions in combating money laundering and identify obstacles in their implementation. The research method used is juridical-normative research with a legal regulatory framework. Primary data was obtained through literature review and examination of legal documents, while secondary data came from relevant literature, reports, and academic studies. The urgency of this research stems from the importance of evaluating and strengthening the application of criminal sanctions to protect the national financial system from the risk of money laundering. Without concrete steps to increase the effectiveness of sanctions, money laundering crimes will continue to proliferate and pose a threat to the national economy, weaken the legal system, and erode public trust in efforts to combat economic crime.

Anemia in pregnant women can increase the risk of bleeding during labor. Therefore, early detection is crucial for preventing potential complications and preventing anemia during pregnancy. One way to empower pregnant women in this effort is through community service activities. This community service activity is a collaboration between STIKes Mitra Husada Medan and a practice in Bangun Rejo Village, Tanjung Morawa. Anemia can affect pregnant women at various stages of pregnancy. Therefore, this community service program is implemented in the form of a pregnancy class aimed at preventing and early detection of anemia. The target group includes pregnant women in their first, second, and third trimesters, with the hope of increasing their knowledge about anemia, thus creating physically and emotionally healthy mothers-to-be. The results of the community service program indicate positive changes following the community service, including an increased understanding of the symptoms of anemia, preventive measures, and active participation in early detection of anemia during pregnancy.

This study aims to examine the legal gaps and regulatory challenges in enforcing criminal liability against perpetrators of crimes within Indonesia’s crypto ecosystem, particularly in the context of Decentralized Finance (DeFi), smart contracts, and decentralized digital asset trading platforms. The research employs a normative juridical approach using statutory and conceptual methods. The findings indicate that current criminal law instruments, such as Article 378 of the Criminal Code, Article 28 paragraph (1) of the Electronic Information and Transactions (ITE) Law, Law No. 8 of 2010 on the Prevention and Eradication of Money Laundering (TPPU), and Law No. 10 of 1998 on Banking, are inadequate to address the unique and complex characteristics of crypto-related crimes. These crimes are anonymous, cross-jurisdictional, and difficult to trace due to the absence of centralized authority. As a result, the existing legal framework fails to provide sufficient victim protection and leads to weak law enforcement effectiveness. This legal vacuum also hampers the state's ability to respond to the growing digital threats and creates legal uncertainty in the expanding crypto space. Therefore, this study recommends the formulation of specific criminal regulations that comprehensively define digital assets, legal subjects within decentralized systems, and new criminal offenses relevant to crypto-related conduct. It also calls for the establishment of specialized institutions dedicated to investigating and prosecuting such crimes. These proposed regulations are expected to strengthen the national criminal justice system, making it more adaptive, fair, and effective in addressing the challenges posed by digital transformation.

This study aims to determine whether the Penal and Non-Penal Integral Policy can be implemented to increase the effectiveness of eradicating online gambling crimes and to determine the obstacles faced by the local government in implementing the Integral Policy on Online Gambling Crimes in Surakarta. This type of research uses empirical legal research, with a descriptive research nature. The research location is at the Surakarta Police, Surakarta City. The types and sources of data in the study consist of two types, primary data and secondary data. Data collection techniques are by observation, interview, and decision study techniques. The results of this study show that the causes of the rampant online gambling in the Surakarta Police area are economic problems, community disobedience to the law, morality factors, low Human Resources (HR), and tradition. The eradication of online gambling in the Surakarta Police area can be said to be effective, although in reality online gambling continues to grow, but during the last five years (2020-2025) there has only been one case file handled regarding online gambling, However, the role of the Police in handling online gambling cases is still limited, so that the perpetrators of gambling are only subject to Article 303 of the Criminal Code concerning gambling. and in handling online gambling cases, there are various obstacles found in the field, both in terms of time, costs and processes that are not easy to imagine.

This study explores the critical role of law in preventing and addressing crimes within the trade sector, focusing on specific economic crimes such as corruption, embezzlement, market manipulation, and smuggling. These crimes are on the rise, primarily driven by social and economic inequality. Unequal wealth distribution, weak regulatory oversight, and legal loopholes create opportunities for individuals and groups to pursue illicit financial gains. Powerful economic entities often exploit these weaknesses to maintain monopolistic control, deepening inequality and obstructing fair competition. Moreover, inadequate law enforcement and a lack of transparency within bureaucratic systems contribute to the widespread practices of bribery and collusion between business actors and government officials. This undermines the effectiveness of existing regulations and diminishes public confidence in the legal framework. The consequences of such economic crimes extend beyond financial losses; they significantly affect the broader society. These include rising poverty and unemployment, the deterioration of public trust in legal institutions, and increased social instability, all of which threaten sustainable economic development. To address these challenges, this study applies criminological and legal perspectives, underlining the necessity of multisectoral collaboration. It advocates for stronger government and legal institutional efforts, along with active community engagement, to enhance oversight mechanisms and promote transparency. Firm and equitable enforcement of laws is essential in ensuring justice and restoring trust. Ultimately, a collective commitment to legal reform and accountability is vital to building a trade environment that is fair, inclusive, and conducive to long-term national growth.

This activity was attended by 20 residents and is expected to be the first step in increasing awareness of consuming herbal drinks as a health promotion and prevention effort. Conclusion: Thecommunityserviceactivityto introduceherbaldrinks to the community around the Sari Mutiara Pharmacy successfully increased public understanding and interest in consuming herbal drinks as part of a healthy lifestyle.

 Matra Health is a form of health service specifically designed to maintain and improve public health in dynamic, complex, and constantly changing environmental conditions. This service plays a very vital role, especially in facing and handling various types of disasters, both natural disasters such as earthquakes, floods, and landslides, as well as non-natural disasters such as residential fires. One form of non-natural disaster that often occurs in densely populated areas is residential fires. This is caused by various factors such as unsafe electrical installations, a lack of public awareness of the dangers of fire, and buildings that are not resistant to heat or fire. Residential fires not only cause physical damage to buildings and infrastructure, but also cause various health problems, ranging from burns, respiratory problems due to smoke exposure, to psychological trauma, especially in vulnerable groups such as children, the elderly, and pregnant women. In response to these conditions, a dimensional health intervention activity was carried out from June 23 to 26, 2025 in areas affected by the fires under the coordination of the South Sumatra Regional Crisis Center. This activity aims to reduce health risk factors that arise after the fires through a series of actions such as multi-sector health surveillance, public health education, and distribution of logistical assistance. The activity also includes conducting rapid assessments using the Rapid Health Assessment (RHA) method, providing education on fire impact prevention, and distributing supplementary food to vulnerable groups. The results of the activity showed a significant increase in public understanding of the dangers of fire and the importance of preparedness for its impacts. Furthermore, the need to strengthen cross-sectoral coordination, such as health, disaster management, and social sectors, in disaster management was identified. It is hoped that this activity can serve as a model for strengthening community-based emergency response systems.

The circulation of narcotics in Tanjungpinang City has increased from 2019 to 2023, despite various programs implemented by relevant agencies. Based on the data, there were 422 suspects apprehended, with 395 suspects acting as distributors (dealers) and 27 suspects as users. The presence of two main institutions, the National Narcotics Agency of Tanjungpinang City and the Narcotics Crime Unit of Tanjungpinang City Police, has not yet been fully effective in reducing the rate of drug trafficking. This study aims to analyze the application of collaborative governance in combating drug trafficking in Tanjungpinang City, based on the theory of Schottle, Haghsheno, and Gehbauer (2014) with seven indicators: willingness to compromise, communication, commitment, mutual trust, transparency/information exchange, knowledge sharing, and willingness to take risks. The method used is a descriptive qualitative approach. Data was collected through interviews and documentation. The research results indicate that willingness to compromise is reflected in cooperation such as joint investigations and coordination in handling suspects. Communication between agencies is conducted both formally and digitally, though not yet structured on a routine basis, it remains responsive. Commitment is demonstrated through Operation Antik, the BNNP prevention program, and the consistent and sustained participation of the DPC GANN. Mutual trust is built through open communication and recognition of each party's role. Transparency and information exchange are evident in the openness of data and access to information between agencies and the public, though technological challenges remain. Knowledge sharing is facilitated through contributions from the National Narcotics Agency (BNN), the police, and former offenders, fostering collective learning. Willingness to take risks is evident in the courage to adopt new approaches for innovation in drug eradication.
