Abstract
This study examines the role of social assistance in the community by emphasizing the usefulness of assistance, routine assistance, and evaluation of social assistance for the community. The study focuses on the impact of social assistance on the community before and after social assistance is provided. The design used is a literature review. The research was carried out from February 2022 to September 2022, with the object of research being the role of poverty assistance in the community. They collected data using the literature review method on 20 relevant research articles published from 2012 to 2021. The findings of this research show that social support plays the biggest influence when providing non-cash essentials. Social assistance in the form of cash is vulnerable to being used inappropriately, such as buying consumer goods. The role of social assistance is to provide social protection, social empowerment, social security, economic strengthening, and educational assistance for the recipients of social assistance.
