The community service activities were attended by 16 adolescent aged 12–18 years. Most of the adolescent who took part in the activity were 12 years old (37.5%), and most had junior high school education (50%).

Blood supplementation tablets were given for three months using a TTD control card, and three groups of adolescent were formed as peer support. The three months of mentoring went well with the participation of the adolescent and support from the church and the village government.
