Abstract

The Bina Keluarga Remaja (BKR) Program is a strategic initiative aimed at fostering the development of quality human resources by enhancing parents’ knowledge and skills in guiding adolescents. Implemented by BKKBN in Rokan Hulu Regency, this program targets adolescents aged 10–24 years, promoting healthy, productive, and well-characterized growth. BKR groups are established in each village to increase parental awareness and responsibility in mentoring adolescents through harmonious interaction. Key activities include regular education and counseling by BKR cadres, active parental involvement through socialization, group meetings, parenting training, and family counseling, as well as cross-sector collaboration with village governments, religious leaders, schools, and health institutions. The program has successfully improved parental awareness, reduced early marriage rates, strengthened family harmony, and guided adolescents away from delinquency, drug abuse, and risky sexual behavior. Nevertheless, the implementation faces challenges such as limited funding, requiring cadres to rely on self-funded activities, difficulties in gathering participants due to scheduling conflicts, and insufficient human resources for field outreach. Based on George C. Edward III’s policy implementation theory, the program’s success depends on effective communication among stakeholders, available resources, the enthusiasm of implementers, and an organized bureaucratic structure. Strengthening resources, improving communication, and enhancing cross-sector coordination are essential to optimize the effectiveness of the BKR Program in Rokan Hulu Regency.
