The results of this study indicate that the level of community education has a positive impact on the Family Welfare Card service in Mangempang Village, Barru District, Barru Regency; each beneficiary family has different levels of satisfaction related to the Family Welfare Card service depending on the good or negative aspects of their experience as KKS recipients. Beneficiary families feel that the services provided by the government in this KKS program are satisfactory and the assistance can meet the needs of the beneficiary community.
