Umi Salamah (2026). Utilization of the Family Hope Program (PKH) Social Assistance in Rimba Langgeh Village, Arongan Lambalek District, West Aceh Regency. [Undergraduate Thesis. Syiah Kuala University]. Supervised by Drs. Amrusi, M.Si. and Dr. Nana Suraiya, S.Pd., M.Pd. The utilization of social assistance from the Family Hope Program (PKH) serves as a government strategy to alleviate poverty and improve the welfare of impoverished families. In Rimba Langgeh Village, Arongan Lambalek District, West Aceh Regency, geographical conditions and the residents' reliance on agriculture present challenges for the optimal utilization of PKH. This study aims to determine whether PKH social assistance is being utilized in accordance with the program's specific components in Rimba Langgeh Village. The study employs a qualitative approach with a descriptive research design. The research subjects consist of 10 beneficiary families (KPM) in Rimba Langgeh Village. Data collection techniques included interviews and documentation, followed by a descriptive analysis of the gathered data. The results indicate that the utilization of PKH funds across the education, health, and social welfare components aligns with the program's objectives: (1) Regarding the education component, most beneficiaries use the assistance for children's school needs-such as uniforms, books, stationery, bags, shoes, fees, pocket money, and transportation-resulting in observable improvements in children's attendance, motivation, and academic achievement. (2) Regarding the health component, PKH facilitates access to healthcare services by covering transportation costs and visits to integrated health posts (Posyandu) or community health centers (Puskesmas), as well as the purchase of vitamins, nutritious food, milk, and medicines; this leads to improved nutritional intake and reduces the financial burden of medical treatment. (3) Regarding the social welfare component, PKH funds are primarily used for basic necessities such as rice, cooking oil, sugar, vegetables, clothing, electricity bills, and transportation, and occasionally for minor home repairs, household appliances, micro-business capital, or savings for purchasing gold. Overall, PKH utilization in Rimba Langgeh Village aligns with the program's three components and yields positive short-term impacts on education, health, and basic family welfare; however, achieving long-term optimization requires improvements in the distribution process.
