<![CDATA[Maternal Mortality Rate (MMR) and Infant Mortality Rate (IMR) are indicators to assess the health status of the community. Based on the Indonesian Demographic and Health Survey 2017 IDHS, the maternal mortality rate in Indonesia is still high at 302 per 100,000 live births, while the infant mortality rate is 24 per 1000 live births. The decline in MMR and IMR cannot be separated from the role of community empowerment, one of which is carried out through the implementation of the Childbirth Planning and Complications Prevention Program (P4K). Most mothers, husbands, and families have less active role in the implementation of P4K, even though there is an effect of implementing P4K on neonatal mortality. This happens because the mother's knowledge about P4K is still lacking, so her attitude is still not positive. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between knowledge and attitudes of pregnant women towards the implementation of the Childbirth Planning and Complications Prevention (P4K) Program. The research design used "analytic descriptive" cross-sectional, with a total population of 126 pregnant women, while the sample was taken using purposive sampling technique, with a total sample of 96 respondents. The results of statistical analysis with the Chi-Square test showed that for the knowledge variable, the results of the P value = 0.005 concluded that there was a significant relationship between the level of knowledge and the implementation of P4K, while for the attitude variable the P value = 0.001 concluded that there was a significant relationship between attitudes with the implementation of P4K.]]>
