These include communicating, cooperating, sharing, participating, and adapting. Social Skills Training (SST) helps individuals master these skills through joint activities and behavior formation principles. SST is also used as an intervention to enhance clients’ problem-solving abilities, especially in conditions such as depression, schizophrenia, behavioral disorders, social phobia, and anxiety. For people with mental disorders who are in recovery, social skills training is important for building interaction, communication, cooperation, and creativity skills. The results of this training can provide feelings of happiness and pride, such as through artistic works or other skills.</p> Rini Hartini Hartini Rinda Andayani Enung Huripah Copyright (c) 2024 Jurnal Ilmiah Pengabdian Kepada Masyarakat https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0 2024-08-07 2024-08-07 1 1 01 07 10.31595/ppm.v1i1.1337 https://jurnal.poltekesos.ac.id/index.php/ppm/article/view/1357 <p>Cipendawa Village, located on a tourist route, faces serious challenges related to the circulation and abuse of NAPZA (Narcotics, Psychotropics, and Addictive Substances). Data shows that there are victims of NAPZA abuse among teenagers in this village. One of the main issues is the lack of parental understanding about NAPZA abuse, including its types, distribution methods, and treatment options. Many parents are unaware that their children are using NAPZA, often attributing it to mystical causes, hiding the reality, and not knowing what to do, leaving the victims of NAPZA abuse (KPN) without proper treatment. Recovery Agents (AP) in Cipendawa Village have conducted various interventions to help KPN, such as barista training and catfish farming. However, these interventions are not sustainable, raising concerns that KPN might relapse into using NAPZA. The APs also face difficulties in finding effective solutions to these problems. Despite this, the AP and IMB of Cipendawa Village have become models for other villages, demonstrating good potential and capabilities that can be enhanced to become more competent in their roles as Recovery Agents</p> Yuti Sri Ismudiyati Jumayar Marbun Eko Gunawan Copyright (c) 2024 Jurnal Ilmiah Pengabdian Kepada Masyarakat https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0 2024-09-09 2024-09-09 1 1 08 16 10.31595/janaseva.v1i1.1357 https://jurnal.poltekesos.ac.id/index.php/ppm/article/view/1366 <p>This article aims to describe the process of improving childcare services for low-income families carried out by the Social Welfare Center (<em>Puskesos</em>) in Sekarwangi Village, Soreang Subdistrict, Bandung Regency.
