PARTISIPASI FAITH-BASED ORGANIZATION DALAM MENDUKUNG PROSES REINTEGRASI SOSIAL KLIEN PEMASYARAKATAN ANAK (Studi Kasus Pondok Pesantren Nurul Huda, Jember)
Abstract
This study aims to identify and analyze the forms of participation of Faith-Based Organizations (FBOs), particularly Islamic boarding schools (pesantren), in supporting the social reintegration of child correctional clients, as well as the supporting and inhibiting factors involved. This study is significant because Indonesian correctional literature has predominantly focused on diversion, restorative justice, and the juvenile justice system, while the role of religious-based non-state actors in child social reintegration remains underexplored. A qualitative case study approach was employed at Pondok Pesantren Nurul Huda, a social reintegration partner of the Class II Correctional Center (Bapas) of Jember. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with nine informants (child clients, a kiai, caregivers, and probation officers), observation, and documentation, and were analyzed using the interactive model of Miles, Huberman, and Saldana, with credibility established through source, method, and time triangulation. The results show that the participation of Pondok Pesantren Nurul Huda can be explained through Robert Chambers' (1997) five indicators of participation: local actor involvement, mutual learning, empowerment, a bottom-up approach, and changes in social relations. The success of this participation is supported by directly practiced religious values, the human resources of caregivers, and a structured pesantren life system, but is still constrained by uneven family support, limited local government support, inadequate facilities, and a gap between institutional coordination and individual-level monitoring. The study concludes that the pesantren contributes substantively, rather than merely complementing the formal correctional system, in supporting the social reintegration of child clients.
