Abstract
Pasanggrahan Village at Tegal Waru Subdistrict, Purwakarta district, based on the 2016 results economic census, has the potential to become a tourist village with a mountain of rocks around it. Therefore this village is known as a million stone village. Another tourist attraction is the Juanda Lake which is connected to the Jatiluhur reservoir. However, this potential has not developed as expected. The main factor is that the road is not conducive. Therefore the local government budgeted for road repairs by concrete and was only realized this year and road concreting was completed in November 2017. Currently most of the family heads work outside areas (big cities) such as Bandung and Jakarta or go to foreign as construction workers and laborers. Their wives live at home as housewives. Efforts to enhance the role of mothers have been carried out by the Nurani Dunia Foundation. Namely with the creation of waste management groups. This waste management effort is the first step in building a clean village, so that promotional efforts as a tourist village have been prepared with clean village conditions in order to welcome tourists.
