Abstract

Narcotics abuse and circulation in children and adolescents is a social and legal problem that requires the attention and involvement of various parties, especially the community in the residential environment. Low understanding of the dangers of narcotics, legal consequences, and prevention efforts can increase the risk of involvement of children and adolescents in narcotics abuse. This activity aims to increase public legal awareness, especially children and adolescents, in an effort to prevent narcotics abuse in Klambir Lima Kebun Village. The method used is in the form of socialization and legal education directly to the community by delivering material on the definition of narcotics, forms of abuse, impact on health and social life, legal consequences, and the role of the community in prevention. The activity is also complemented by discussions and questions and answers to increase participants' understanding of narcotics problems that can occur in the community. The results of the activity showed an increase in the legal awareness of the community, especially children and adolescents, regarding the dangers of narcotics abuse and the importance of compliance with applicable legal provisions. Participants also showed a better understanding of the importance of the role of family, social environment, and society in preventing narcotics abuse and trafficking. Thus, legal education through socialization activities can be one of the preventive efforts in increasing legal awareness while strengthening the protection of children and adolescents from the threat of narcotics abuse in Klambir Lima Kebun Village
