Abstract

The Langsa District Attorney's Office should play a maximal role in increasing public legal awareness through various legal counseling and legal education programs. However, in reality, the implementation of these programs faces several challenges, such as limited facilities and infrastructure, a shortage of personnel, and insufficient funding. The purpose of this study is to analyze the role of the Langsa District Attorney's Office in enhancing public legal awareness and to identify the obstacles faced in implementing these programs. This study uses a descriptive analysis methodology with a qualitative approach to systematically describe the role and challenges encountered by the Prosecutor's Office in its legal outreach programs. Although the Langsa District Attorney's Office has made various efforts to improve legal awareness, the existing challenges need to be addressed in order to achieve these objectives more effectively. Solutions to these issues will significantly impact the effectiveness of future legal outreach programs.
