Second, based on temporary shelters, namely Temporary Shelters (TPS) for residents displaced by COVID-19 in GOR-GOR which have been prepared by each Social Service Sub-dept., equipped with living facilities, personal equipment, toiletries and public kitchens.
Third, based on the Social Rehabilitation Center/Panti as a place for continued services for residents displaced by COVID-19, prioritized Beneficiaries (PM) who are very vulnerable (pregnant women, early childhood children, the elderly, people with disabilities) who need special services and services. continued at the Panti/Rehsos Hall belonging to the Ministry of Social Affairs as well as the Provincial or City/Regency Social Office.
The priority program of the Directorate General of Social Rehabilitation in 2021 is the implementation of Social Rehabilitation Assistance (ATENSI) which includes the fulfillment of basic needs, therapy (physical, mental, spiritual, psychosocial, skills/entrepreneurship), social care/care (needs for love, safety, attachment, welfare) and family support (emotional, knowledge, relationship skills and understanding the problems at hand). ATENSI is strengthened by implementing family, community and residential-based social rehabilitation.
Harry said that family-based attention is important because the family is a place to meet physical and psychological needs as well as a place of shelter. A good, harmonious and happy family can improve the quality of social welfare.
Furthermore, community-based attention with the consideration that the community is the closest environment in fulfilling physical and psychological needs; A community that has a shared awareness will protect against abandonment; LKS is the main driver for families and communities to assist/care for. Community is closest to family. Therefore, the community must be strengthened through LKS to be more sensitive and responsive in preventing and resolving the problems they experience.
Residential care-based ATENSI is residential-based care through Social Centers/Social Rehabilitation Houses. According to Harry, residential services are the last alternative. Thus, the Central Technical Implementation Unit (UPT)/Centers as centrelink must focus its services on increasing the capacity of the Regional UPT and LKS so that they can focus their activities more on strengthening family resilience so that they can return to their families as soon as possible.

At the end of his presentation Harry wants that LKS accreditation is not about quantity but quality, so accreditation aims to guarantee the quality of LKS services, protect from abuse of authority (malpractice), increase LKS capacity, truly standardized, transparent, and comprehensive.
Standardized means that accreditation methods and instruments produce valid and reliable data. Transparent means that accreditation must involve various parties. Comprehensive means that accreditation must cover program feasibility, human resources, organizational management, infrastructure, and service outcomes. "Online accreditation needs to be developed so that more LKS are accredited," concluded Harry.
There were 34 participants who were representatives of the National Forums throughout Indonesia, and the LKS Regional Forums of each province.
