The purpose of the vaccination program organized by the government is to reduce the possibility of transmission of the Corona virus. If given in bulk, the Covid-19 vaccine can encourage the formation of herd immunity in society. So, people with vulnerable ages such as the elderly and infants or people with autoimmunity and people who can't get vaccinated can still get protection from those around them. Community Service Activities by Immigration Polytechnic Cadets in the context of Vaccination in the Tangerang City area received a positive response in the form of appreciation and thanks delivered directly by the Covid-19 Task Force. It is hoped that this activity is a form of concern and involvement in supporting the government's program to suppress the spread of Covid-19 in Indonesia so that herd immunity can be formed and the pandemic can be ended immediately.

Covid-19 spread rapidly and massively in a short time. Within 1 year, this virus has been able to infect 233 countries in the world. Therefore, it is necessary to make efforts to minimize the spread of Covid-19. One way that can minimize the spread of Covid-19 is by doing 3W (wear mask, wash hands, wait until others distanced at 1-2 meters) which is recommended by WHO. However, based on Task Force (SatGas) data, from health protocol disciplinary monitoring shows that the level of community compliance with 3W health protocols is still not satisfactory yet. The health protocol disciplinary monitoring, which has been done since November 18, 2020 shows a trend of decreasing individual compliance in wearing masks, maintaining distance, and avoiding crowds. Non- compliance in implementing this health protocol also occurs in the city of Surabaya, especially in Pucang Market. Based on the results of observations at Pucang Market, there are still many buyers did not wear masks, keep their distance, and did wash their hands intensively. The purpose of this community service is to socialize and make the community (buyers and sellers in Pucang Market) understand the ways to prevent Covid-19 transmission and understand the urgency of implementing 3W in Pucang Market. The method to achieve those purpose is distributing masks and socialization by sticking posters and distributing flyers containing education to prevent Covid-19 transmission with 3W. The result of this community service was the realization of  distribution of 350 masks, sticking posters and distribution  flyers containing  education to prevent Covid-19 transmission with 3W which received a positive response from both market management and market sellers and buyers that shown with their enthusiasm to read immediately and photograph the posters and wore the masks that was distributed to them. Socialization of 3W in this market is very important because the market is a fertile place to transmit the Corona Virus because of its crowded conditions. By socializing information  about  prevention  methods  and  the  importance  of  implementing  health protocols (3W) in this markets, sellers and buyers can prevent the transmission of covid-19. AbstrakCovid-19 menyebar dengan sangat pesat dan masif dalam waktu singkat. Dalam kurun waktu 1 tahun, virus ini mampu menginfeksi 233 negara di dunia. Oleh karena itu perlu dilakukan serangkaian upaya untuk meminimalisir penyebaran Covid-19. Salah satu cara yang dapat dilakukan untuk meminimalisir penyebaran Covid-19 adalah dengan melakukan 3M (memakai masker, menjaga jarak, dan mencuci tangan) sebagaimana yang direkomendasikan oleh WHO. Namun, berdasarkan data Satuan Tugas Pemantauan Kedisiplinan Protokol Kesehatan menunjukkan bahwa tingkat kepatuhan masyarakat terhadap protokol kesehatan 3M masih belum memuaskan. Pemantauan kedisiplinan  protokol yang dilakukan sejak 18 November 2020 ini memperlihatkan tren penurunan kepatuhan individu dalam memakai masker, menjaga jarak dan menghindari kerumunan. Ketidakpatuhan dalam menerapkan protokol kesehatan ini juga terjadi di kota Surabaya, salah satunya di Pasar Pucang. Berdasarkan hasil observasi di Pasar Pucang, masih banyak pedagang maupun pembeli yang tidak memakai masker, tidak menjaga jarak dan tidak mencuci tangan secara intens. Tujuan dari pengabdian ini adalah untuk memasyarakatkan atau menjadikan masyarakat (pembeli dan penjual di pasar pucang) mengenal dan memahami cara untuk mencegah penularan Covid-19 serta menjadikan masyarakat memahami urgensi penerapan 3M di Pasar Pucang. Adapun metode yang digunakan adalah dengan pembagian masker dan sosialisasi dengan penempelan poster dan pembagian flyer yang berisi edukasi pencegahan penularan Covid-19 melalui 3M. Hasil dari kegiatan pengabdian ini adalah terealisasinya pembagian 350 masker serta penempelan poster dan pembagian flyer edukasi pencegahan Covid-19 dengan 3M yang mendapatkan respons yang positif baik dari manajemen pasar dan pedagang pasar maupun pembeli, ditunjukkan dengan antusiasme mereka untuk langsung membaca dan memfoto poster yang telah ditempelkan dan menggunakan masker yang telah dibagikan. Sosialisasi 3M di pasar ini sangat penting karena pasar menjadi tempat yang cukup subur untuk menularkan Virus Corona mengingat kondisinya yang ramai bahkan sesak pengunjung. Dengan sosialisasi terkait cara pencegahan dan pentingnya menerapkan protokol kesehatan (3M) di pasar, pedagang dan pembeli dapat mencegah penularan covid-19.

Abstrak Jumlah penduduk lansia Indonesia saat ini yang sudah mencapai persentase 9,6% dari total jumlah penduduk menjadi perhatian semua stakeholder termasuk pemerintah dan akademisi di perguruan tinggi. UKI yang berkedudukan wilayah terdapat di Jakarta Timur menjadi salah satu dari lima perguruan tinggi yang dihunjuk langsung oleh pemerintah provinsi DKI Jakarta melalui Dinas Pemberdayaan Perlindungan Anak dan Pengendalian Penduduk (Dinas PPAPP) Provinsi DKI Jakarta untuk melakukan kegiatan KKN Tematik, yang oleh UKI dilaksanakan dalam bentuk kegiatan pengabdian kepada masyarakat dengan jenis kegiatan pendampingan pengelolaan dan pembinaan kelompok Bina Keluarga Lansia (BKL). Adapun yang menjadi tujuan dari kegiatan pengabdian ini adalah untuk menggairahkan kembali kelompok-kelompok BKL yang sudah pernah terbentuk, namun tidak ada aktifitas alias mati suri. Bekerjasama dengan Sudin PPAPP Jakarta Timur, Tim UKI diarahkan untuk melakukan pendampingan dan pembinaan kepada kelompok BKL di RW 05 Kelurahan Cililitan. Berdasarkan data yang diperoleh, terdapat sekitar seratus orang lansia yang menjadi anggota tetap BKL di RW 05 Kelurahan Cililitan, yang pada saat awal dibentuk memiliki struktur kepengurusan yang sah dan berbagai macam program. Namun beberapa waktu terakhir dengan adanya pergantian kepengurusan, aktifitas berkurang bahkan struktur kepengurusan juga belum memeroleh pengesahan dari Kelurahan. Hal ini disebabkan oleh beberapa faktor, di antaranya tidak tersedianya cukup banyak waktu oleh pengurus yang terbaru untuk melakukan koordinasi. Melalui kegiatan pendampingan dan pembinaan yang dilakukan oleh tim UKI bekerjasama dengan dinas PPAPP diperoleh beberapa hasil, di antaranya semakin bertambahnya pengetahuan para kader tentang kelanjutusiaan yang diperoleh dari kegiatan sharing dan diskusi, terbentuknya kepengurusan kelompok BKL yang disahkan oleh Lurah Kelurahan Cililitan dan adanya program terencana kelompok BKL  Kata kunci: Bina Keluarga Lansia, Pengabdian kepada Masyarakat, Kelanjutusiaan Abstract The current population of elderly Indonesians who have reached 9.6% of the total population is the concern of all stakeholders including the government and academics in tertiary institutions. UKI domiciled in East Jakarta is one of five tertiary institutions appointed directly by the provincial government of DKI Jakarta through the Office of the Empowerment of Child Protection and Population Control (Dinas PPAPP) of DKI Jakarta Province to carry out Thematic Community Service Program activities, which is conducted by UKI in the form of community service activities with the type of mentoring management and fostering the Elderly Family Development (BKL) group.

In collaboration with East Jakarta PPAPP Sub-dept., The UKI Team was directed to provide assistance and guidance to the BKL group in RW 05, Cililitan Village. Based on the data obtained, there are about one hundred elderly people who become permanent BKL members in RW 05, Cililitan Sub-District, which at the beginning were formed having a legal management structure and various programs. However, recently with the change of management, activities have been reduced, even the management structure has not yet received approval from the Kelurahan. This is caused by several factors, including the unavailability of enough time for the latest management to coordinate. Through the mentoring and coaching activities carried out by the UKI team in collaboration with the PPAPP service, several results were obtained, including the increasing knowledge of cadres about humanity obtained from sharing and discussion activities, the formation of the management of the BKL group which was endorsed by the Kelurahan of Cililitan and the planned group program BKL  Keywords: Elderly Family Development, Community Service, Continuation
