However, the pollution process cause of sanitation takes very long time; therefore, many people tend to ignore the dangerous posed to their health. Geographically, the residents in Tebo Regency are mostly located onthe riverbank, with inadequate sanitation facilities. Some of these sanitation facilities were built through the SLBM program, but they do not work optimally. This research was conducted to determine the factors of un-optimal SLBM program and to manage the future strategies for better SLBM. This study used a qualitative descriptive approach. The data were collectedusing survey methods, questionnaires, and interviews communities and local governments. The results showed that the implementation of the SLBM Sustainable Development Policy in TeboRegency was not optimal yet, due to several factors, including: lack of training / guidance, non-functioning CBOs, lack of trigger for healthy lifestyle, lack of socialization, lack of supporting facilities, inconsistent standards, lack of synergy between stakeholders, and lack of human resources. To improve sanitation access through the SLBM program, it requires commitment among stakeholders, support local governments to equip CBOs with training, Improve Socialization, and invite communities in the SLBM program.
