Help: Journal of Community Service (HJCS) is a peer-reviewed, multidisciplinary scientific journal, published online with ISSN (Online) 3048-3069. This journal serves as a platform for publishing academic research, best practices, and innovations in community service and development across diverse fields of study.

HJCS focuses on four main approaches in community engagement:

1. Participatory Action Research (PAR) – A research method that actively involves communities in identifying issues and collectively finding solutions.

2. Community-Based Research (CBR) – A collaborative research approach where scholars and community members work together to address local challenges through systematic inquiry.

3. Service Learning (SL) – The integration of academic learning and community service, creating reciprocal benefits for students and society.

4. Asset-Based Community Development (ABCD) – A strategy that leverages existing strengths and resources within communities to foster sustainable development.

The journal welcomes contributions from academics, researchers, students, practitioners, and policymakers from various disciplines. Published articles may include original research, case studies, field reflections, or conceptual thinking related to community service and empowerment.

HJCS aims to foster knowledge exchange, strengthen university-community partnerships, and disseminate effective methods for building resilient and empowered communities. Through this publication, we are committed to becoming a source of learning and inspiration for those engaged in impactful social work.
