Tsunami disasters cause human casualties, environmental damage, property losses, and psychological impacts, hence the need for disaster preparedness. Preparedness is an activity to anticipate disasters through organizing appropriate and effective steps. There are several factors that can build community preparedness, one of which is social capital. Social capital is part of social life, such as networks, norms and trust. The purpose of community service is to optimize understanding of the role of social capital in supporting tsunami disaster preparedness. Materials used included a letter of assignment, attendance list, as well as modules and questionnaires on disasters, preparedness, and social capital. The approach used was education and socialization on strengthening social capital in building community preparedness in facing tsunami disasters. Community service was carried out in Pagumbahan Village, Ciracap District, Sukabumi Regency on January 8-10, 2023. This activity was attended by 40 people. The results of the community service showed that there was an increase in knowledge and understanding of social capital. The material explained can be understood because what has been explained is not new and is often done. Most participants understand disaster preparedness and the role of social capital in supporting disaster preparedness. Community capacity building activities are expected to be further enhanced in order to create a disaster resilient community.
