Socialization of Jo Kawin Bocah as an Effort to Reduce Early Marriages for Vulnerable Groups

Early marriage in Indonesia is a problem that is not only related to marriage law but also related to issues of child protection and human rights. The Parole and Probation Office as an institution that also plays a role in handling Juveniles involved with the law shows its involvement and collaborates with the Women's Empowerment Service, Child Protection, Population Control and Family Planning (DP3AP2KB). Central Java created a program to prevent child marriage called Jo Kawin Bocah, but not all teenagers know about the program. The aim of conducting outreach is to reduce the rate of early marriage among Indonesian children and disseminate information related to the program. The research method consists of counseling and field practice.

The participants' enthusiasm in participating in this activity was shown by listening carefully to every point of the material presented and providing positive feedback, thus making the team enthusiastic in answering the questions asked.3.There is a sense of kinship among the team and the counseling participants.Apart from being supported by supporting factors, there are also inhibiting factors in implementing this extension activity.The inhibiting factor is that the counseling time is quite short because the community has to carry out further activities, so some questions have not been answered by the Team, however, the Team has provided access to a contact person who can be contacted to continue communication and answer questions that have not been answered.
The results of the implementation of extension activities were also analyzed using SWOT analysis (Strengths, Weakness, Opportunities, Threats).The analysis can be seen as follows.a. Strengths Strengths are resources, skills, and other advantages related to competitors and in accordance with needs (Widajanti, 2007).

-The number of dedications published in articles/journals is still limited.-Extension media has not varied and is still modifying extension activities in general.c.Opportunities Opportunities are important favorable situations in the work environment (Si et al., 2022).Important trends are a source of opportunities, such as technological changes or changes that can indicate the significance of activities.
-Large opportunities for collaboration with various other law enforcement agencies.-There is an opportunity to carry out this activity on the next occasion with more varied presentation media.d.Threats Threats are important unfavorable situations in the activity environment (Suryatman et al., 2021).Threats are considered to be the main disturbance in an activity that will be carried out.Various people's mindsets may change and assume that the material presented is not important or useful.The result of this activity is an increase in people's knowledge and ability to prevent child marriage.

CONCLUSION
