This study aims to analyse the effectiveness of the Youth Integrated Health Post Program in preventing drug abuse in Sumbersuko Village, Purwosari District, Pasuruan Regency. This research employed a descriptive qualitative approach. Data were collected through observation, semi-structured interviews, and documentation involving village officials, health workers, youth health cadres, and adolescent participants. Data analysis followed the interactive model of Miles and Huberman consisting of data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The effectiveness of the program was analysed using Duncan’s organisational effectiveness theory through three indicators: goal attainment, integration, and adaptation. The findings indicate that the program has been implemented routinely and has successfully provided basic health services and increased adolescent participation. Coordination among village government, health workers, and youth cadres has also been established effectively. However, the program has not fully achieved its objectives regarding drug abuse prevention because specific educational sessions on drug prevention have not been consistently delivered. Limited human resources and the prioritisation of general health services have become the primary obstacles. Therefore, strengthening educational content related to drug abuse prevention, improving intersectoral collaboration, and enhancing the capacity of youth cadres are recommended to optimise program effectiveness.
