Implementation of the Family Capacity Building Meeting Policy (P2K2) in Changing the Behavior of Families Benefiting from the Family Hope Program

Abstract

In order to provide social security to underprivileged families impacted by structural poverty, the government created the Family Hope Programme (PKH). The Family Capacity Building Meeting (P2K2), a crucial component of the PKH, aims to encourage beneficiary families to improve their behavior. This study's goal is to analyze the implementation of the P2K2 policy in encouraging behavioral change among KPM and to identify the supporting and inhibiting factors, especially in Taraju Village, Sindangagung Subdistrict, Kuningan Regency. The study uses a descriptive qualitative method with data collection techniques of in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation. The analysis was conducted using George C. Edward III's policy implementation theory, which includes the variables of communication, resources, disposition, and bureaucratic structure. The results show that P2K2 has been quite effective in encouraging behavioral change among KPM in the areas of child care, financial management, and awareness of education and health. The positive disposition of facilitators and KPM was the most dominant variable, while limited infrastructure was the main obstacle. It is recommended that the government increase the availability of learning facilities to optimize the implementation of P2K2.
