This study is to explore young offender’s perceptions of the role of community service order programs. This study used a qualitative approach. To explore the issues, the researcher chose a case study design. A total of 6 study respondents underwent PKM (Community Service Order) and during that period they were known as trainees . Through this study, the researcher used the interview method to collect data and the method was chosen because it coincided with this study. Overall, the six trainees in this study were involved in various criminal behaviors as described above due to personal negligence, family conflict, loss of self-control, failure to obey the law, differences in affection and peer influence. The six trainees have been convicted criminal offenses and sentenced to PKM by the Court but no imprisonment. However, they are re-socialized through PKM in the formation of behavior throughout the PKM period.
