This study explores the role of PKBM Teratai in Desa Kuala Jelai, Sukamara Regency, in realizing independent education for the local community. The research used a qualitative approach with a case study design to understand how PKBM Teratai contributes to providing nonformal education that meets the community’s needs. Through various programs such as sewing, handicrafts, and entrepreneurship training, PKBM Teratai offers practical skills that directly impact the community’s economic empowerment. Despite positive outcomes, challenges such as limited facilities, inadequate teaching resources, and a lack of trained instructors persist. The study emphasizes the importance of government and community support in enhancing nonformal education infrastructure. It concludes that nonformal education, as exemplified by PKBM Teratai, plays a crucial role in addressing educational inequalities and empowering communities, highlighting the need for continuous improvement in facilities and teaching capacity to ensure sustainable development.
