Adolescents as assets towards the Golden Indonesia 2045 and also as implementers in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals must have excellent health. This is because there will be many challenges and competition in various life opportunities, so health is a major factor in achieving each goal. Problems that plague Indonesian teenagers are drugs, the spread of HIV/AIDS and free sex. Recorded in National Population And Family Planning Agency, as many as 20% to 60% of adolescents claim to have had sexual intercourse. Through the posyandu remaja (adolescent) program, it is expected to reduce the number of adolescent problems. This study uses a qualitative approach in examining in depth the Posyandu remaja activity program at Bungurasih Polindes, Sidoarjo, East Java in order to improve the healthy living skills of the younger generation. Data were collected using in-depth interview techniques, participatory observation, questionnaires and documentation. The results of this study show a positive impact on improving the healthy living skills of adolescents in Bungurasih Village, village youth are increasingly aware of the importance of maintaining health, and there is a decrease in underage marriage and early pregnancy outside of marriage.
