The rising prevalence of diabetes mellitus demands affordable and accessible health solutions for the community. Family Medicinal Plants (TOGA) have great potential as a complementary therapy, but their use is hampered by a lack of knowledge on proper and safe processing methods. On the other hand, public awareness of drug regulations and the importance of certification from the National Agency of Drug and Food Control (BPOM) remains low, making them vulnerable to illegal products. This community service activity aimed to empower the community, especially the Resident Of RT 04 RW 02, Cempaka Sub-District, Banjarbaru City, in processing potential TOGA for diabetes (such as insulin leaves and bitter melon) into dried simplicia products, while also increasing legal literacy regarding safe traditional medicine standards according to BPOM. The methods used were participatory training and interactive legal counseling, with evaluation conducted through pre-test and post- test. The results show a significant increase in two aspects: a 90% improvement in TOGA processing skills and an 85% improvement in understanding BPOM regulations. It is concluded that this integrated empowerment program is effective in enhancing community health independence and creating smart, legally aware consumers.
