Abstrak


Surabaya sebagai ibukota Provinsi Jawa Timur masih memiliki kondisi cakupan rumah yang tidak sehat sebesar 16,54%. Kondisi rumah yang tidak sehat dipengaruhi oleh beberapa hal, antara lain karena faktor pengetahuan maupun karena kondisi lingkungan yang tidak memungkinkan. Kegiatan pengabdian masyarakat berupa pelatihan kepada masyarakat tentang sanitasi lingkungan di Kecamatan Rungkut bertujuan untuk meningkatkan kesadaran penerapan sanitasi lingkungan pada masyarakat. Upaya melatih masyarakat dalam penerapan sanitasi lingkungan di masyarakat dengan kader PKK dan Kepala Keluarga sehingga dapat tercapai kondisi sanitasi lingkungan yang baik serta terpadu di masyarakat. Kegiatan yang dilakukan yakni sosialisasi kepada masyarakat terkait pentingnya menjaga sanitasi lingkungan pada hari pertama serta sosialisasi tentang pembangunan jamban dan septic tank yang sehat pada hari kedua. Hasil kegiatan menunjukkan para peserta kegiatan tampak antusias sepanjang acara, terdapat 3 pertanyaan pada sesi Tanya-Jawab sebagai bentuk antusiasme peserta. Hasil pre-test dan post-test menunjukkan terdapat peningkatan skor peserta. Sosialisasi pembangunan jamban dan septic tank sehat berjalan dengan lancar, beberapa peserta menunjukkan antusiasme untuk membangun jamban dan septic tank dengan menanyakan nomor penyedia kredit jamban. Seminggu setelah sosialisasi dilakukan pembangunan septic tank di rumah salah satu warga yang kurang mampu, dengan dana bantuan dari tim pengabdian masyarakat serta terdapat pula pembangunan septic tank di 3 rumah warga yang tertarik pada saat sosialisasi dilakukan, dengan biaya mandiri. Diharapkan dapat dilakukan kegiatan sejenis di lokasi lain agar sanitasi lingkungan di Surabaya, terutama terkait kepemilikan septic tank di Surabaya dapat lebih baik lagi.
