This research method uses descriptive qualitative, while the data collection<br />techniques used are interviews, observation, and documentation. The findings of the research<br />show that the Implementation of P2TP2A Institution Policies in the Protection of Women and<br />Children from Violence in Bone Bolango Regency is good in terms of organization,<br />interpretation/understanding, and implementation. In general, it has been implemented but is not<br />optimal. Judging from the organization, it is in accordance with the procedure, and the<br />interpretation/understanding has been carried out but it can be said that it is not good because it<br />has not yet been achieved that many people understand the socialization carried out, human<br />resources are still lacking, and lack of public awareness. In the application, it has been running<br />well in accordance with applicable regulations. In an effort to protect women and children, the<br />community must first know how to protect women and children. Therefore, supervision of the<br />protection of women and children is needed, as well as an increase in socialization and<br />interpretation/understanding with the entire community. Socialization can be done either through<br />advertisements or social media.</p>
