This research aims to provide counseling on health and waste management in an effort to reduce the risk of dengue transmission in Nolokerto Village. This service method is by conducting direct counseling at the Nolokerto Village Hall on August 3, 2024 and involving the local community. The results obtained show that intensive socialization and active community participation in environmental cleaning and waste management have a significant influence on the reduction of the number of dengue cases. The socialization carried out succeeded in increasing public awareness about the importance of maintaining environmental cleanliness as a measure to prevent dengue.
