FRAUD PREVENTION STRATEGY FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF SECOND GENERATION CPTED TO OPTIMIZE POLRI PRESISI IN PANDEGLANG POLICE RESORT
This study investigates strategies for preventing fraud and embezzlement as a foundation for rebuilding community trust in the framework of Polri Presisi. Using a mixed-methods design, the research combines Environmental Scanning, Organizational Health Audit, and SWOT analysis to evaluate the internal–external position of the Pandeglang Police Resort. Statistical trends show rising cases of fraud and embezzlement between 2021 and 2023, with resolution rates remaining low. IFAS and EFAS results place the organization in Cell 5A (Growth), indicating a need for optimization through horizontal integration. The Strategic Factor Analysis Summary highlights short-term priorities such as public awareness campaigns, medium term goals of strengthening the Criminal Investigation Unit and Criminal Justice System coordination, and long-term strategies emphasizing pre-emptive and preventive empowerment through technology. Interpreted through Community Policing (Gill et al., 2014; Pino, 2001) and second-generation CPTED frameworks (Saville & Cleveland, 2008; Cozens & Love, 2015), the findings underscore that sustainable crime prevention requires combining professional enforcement with community culture, social cohesion, and transparency to strengthen legitimacy and public confidence
STRATEGIES FOR ADDRESSING THE CHALLENGES, REGULATIONS, AND LEGAL ASPECTS OF MSMES IN SOUTH KEMANGAN SUBDISTRICT, WEST JAKARTA (COMMUNITY SERVICE BY UNIVERSITAS MERCU BUANA JAKARTA)
This community service (PkM) activity aims to increase the understanding of the community and micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs) in South Kembangan Subdistrict regarding the issuance of several new regulations, business legality, and the registration of MSME permits, both through direct registration with government agencies and via the Online Single Submission (OSS) website. The activity also seeks to strengthen sustainable business strategies through good governance, with the hope that MSMEs will be able to face various challenges and support the government's Asta Cita program. Based on the situational analysis, it was found that the number of registered MSMEs in South Kembangan is still small, with industrial sector activities remaining limited, and various challenges are faced, such as limited understanding of legal aspects, new regulations, management and marketing strategies, and proper financial reporting systems. The PkM activity was conducted through socialization, training, and group discussions with a collaborative approach between lecturers, students, and the community, especially MSME entrepreneurs, on February 26, 2025. The event was attended by at least 35 participants, including subdistrict staff and students from Universitas Mercu Buana. Evaluation results indicated an improvement in participants' understanding, with an average score increase from 3.229 to 3.571 on a scale of 4. This activity supports the achievement of Key Performance Indicators (IKU) and the Merdeka Belajar Kampus Merdeka (MBKM) program. It is expected that the sustainability of the program, through periodic mentoring, will strengthen the competitiveness of MSMEs in the South Kembangan area, which has now become the heart of trade in West Jakarta

The participants (n = 18) completed the intervention and pre- and post-tests using a resilience scale. Data were analyzed using paired sample t-tests and correlation analysis. Results indicated a statistically significant increase in mean resilience scores (t = -2.439, p = 0.026), with 61.1% of students showing individual score improvement. The program proved effective in enhancing resilience, confirming the relevance of psychoeducational strategies in empowering at-risk youth in non-formal education settings
CAPACITY BUILDING OF RPTRA PERSONNEL THROUGH VISUAL COMMUNICATION DESIGN TRAINING FOR SOCIAL MEDIA
The advancement of social media demands that public organizations, including Ruang Publik Terpadu Ramah Anak (RPTRA), produce content that is not only informative but also visually engaging. However, limited graphic design skills among personnel often restrict the optimal use of social media as a medium for public communication. This study seeks to strengthen the capacity of RPTRA personnel in managing digital content through visual communication design training using the Canva application. A descriptive qualitative method was employed, with data collected through observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation during the training, and analyzed thematically within the framework of visual communication theory. The findings demonstrate that the training enhanced personnel capacity in five aspects: design aesthetics, clarity of visual messages, consistency of organizational identity, creative participation in content production, and effective use of social media for public communication. These outcomes indicate that Canva-based training contributes not only to technical design skills but also to the broader strategic communication capacity of the institution. Overall, this community service activity significantly improved the ability of RPTRA personnel to support professional image, organizational credibility, and the sustainable use of social media as a friendly, creative, and inclusive space for public communication

TRAINING ON THE USE OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE FOR MSMES: ENHANCING FINANCIAL EFFICIENCY IN THE DIGITAL ERA IN NORTH KEMBANGAN VILLAGE
In the digital era, Artificial Intelligence (AI) offers significant potential to enhance the competitiveness of Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs), particularly in financial management and marketing strategies. However, AI adoption among MSMEs remains low, especially at the local level. In North Kembangan Village, West Jakarta, most MSMEs still rely on traditional promotional and inventory methods, limiting business growth and efficiency. To address this gap, a Data Science Training program was implemented to improve MSMEs’ digital capabilities. The training focused on basic data literacy, customer data processing, sales trend analysis, and the use of tools such as Excel, Google Sheets, Google Trends, and Meta Ads. Participants also learned how to apply simple dashboards and A/B testing to evaluate marketing effectiveness. The program successfully enhanced participants’ understanding of data-driven strategies and encouraged the shift toward digital transformation. It also fostered a supportive ecosystem through mentoring and peer collaboration, aiming for long-term sustainability in digital adoption among local MSMEs
