Acquired Immuno Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS) is a collection of symptoms and infections associated with the decline in the human immune system caused by the HIV virus. The local wisdom of the community at least becomes a spirit for people with HIV/AIDS. The method of activity is through training and Focus Group Discission (FGD) involving the community and youth. Community groups who are members of the WPA consist of various components in a community environment. As a result of the activity, two WPA groups were formed at the Paluh  Sibaji village level consisting of 30 administrators from various elements, ranging from community leaders, Paluh Sibaji village officials, and youth. The results of the training and FGD activities have been trained as many as 60 WPA administrators in Paluh Sibaji Village.
