Abstract: The study of this
research was an analysis of the public policy implementation concerning on the
implementation of the Family Hope Program (PKH) in Pandak, Bantul regency in
2014. The purposes of this study were to investigate: (1) the implementation of
the Family Hope Program (PKH), (2) the performance of the Family Hope Program
(PKH) and (3) factors that influence the performance of the Family Hope Program
(PKH). To investigate the implementation of the Family Hope Program in Pandak,
the researcher tried to analyze the processes during its implementation. While
to measure the performance of the Family Hope Program in Pandak, the researcher
applied policy output indicators approach from Randall B. Ripley. It consists
of indicators of access, scope, accountability, be as, promptness of service
and suitability of the program needs. The research used a qualitative method by
using primary data and secondary data. To collect the data, the researcher used
observation, interview and documentary. To analyze the data, the researcher
applied inductive data analysis. PKH implementation consists of some the steps,
those are: (1) determining the targets, (2) validating and preparing of the
initial meeting, (3) the distributing of aid and clustering the participants of
PKH,(4) commitments verification, and (5) updating the data. From the various
stages taken, there is a problem related to the weaknesses of the validation
process, that it is only administratively. The weak validation process leads
the determination of the target program became less accurate. Based on the
measurement of the policy output
indicators showed that the output performance of the Family Hope Program
(PKH) in Pandak is low, it can be seen from: 1) aspect of bias, as there are
still economically, some established families belonging to the members of PKH;
2) aspects of delivery service (promptness of service) as the lateness of the
financial aid disbursement, and 3) aspects of the sustainability of the program
with the needs of the target group, the aid criteria or the amount of aid
considered to be unfair for each RTSM.
The research results also showed five dominant factors toward the
performance of the program, namely: 1) the lack of communication with the local
village government; 2) the lack of data transparency of the PKH receiver
targets; 3) the limitation of the available sources; and 4) the absence of
mechanisms and rules controlling the fund spent by RTSM; and 5) the decreased
compliance of RTSM in fulfilling the obligations under the rules of the
program. According to these factors, there were some recommendations to
increase the policy / program to be better, those are: (1) Improving the
communication and involving the local village government, (2) Increasing the
data transparency of the PKH receiver targets; (3) there should be an audit of
the available sources; (4) Social Ministry should issue a new rule and control
it to the spending of PKH financial aid by RTSM, and (5) optimizing the
functions and the coordination between the supervisors and the local village
government to increase the awareness of the poor society in fulfilling the
specified obligations in the program.
