Abstract
The growing elderly population in Indonesia presents challenges to physical, psychological, and social health. Elderly individuals living in social care institutions are at risk of experiencing loneliness, cognitive decline, and reduced meaningful activities, all of which may negatively affect their quality of life. This community service program aimed to improve mental health awareness and life skills among elderly residents at Balai Pelayanan Sosial Tresna Wreda (BPSTW) Abiyoso. The program involved 17 elderly participants and was implemented using a participatory approach through interactive counseling sessions, small-group discussions, and therapeutic activities. Program evaluation was conducted through participatory observation, documentation of participants' activities, and pre-tests and post-tests to measure participants’ level of understanding of elderly mental health. The observation results indicated that group activity-based interventions increased elderly responses and participation, with an average improvement of 31.8%. In addition, the pre-test and post-test results showed an increase in participants’ average understanding score from 58.8 to 77.6, representing a 31.9% improvement. Positive changes were also observed in the emotional and cognitive aspects of the elderly, as reflected in increased self-confidence, attention focus, and communication among participants. Based on these findings, the mental health counseling and life skills training program had a positive impact on the psychosocial well-being of the elderly at BPSTW Abiyoso Yogyakarta.
