Although Sragen Regency has achieved the status of a Child-Friendly Regency (Kota/Kabupaten Layak Anak) at the highest category and has received programmatic support through the Safe and Friendly Environment for Children (SAFE4C) initiative, significant challenges remain in strengthening a child protection system that is holistic, integrated, and sustainable. This research adopts a qualitative approach with a case study design, employing participatory observation, semi-structured interviews, and Focus Group Discussions (FGDs) involving representatives from local government institutions, service providers, community members, and children. The analysis integrates UNICEF?s Child Protection System Strengthening (CPSS) framework and Self-Determination Theory (SDT) to examine norms, structures, and processes in the implementation of the CPS, particularly within the child and family welfare sub-system. The findings indicate that while Sragen Regency has established various policies, institutions, and child protection service mechanisms, these components remain fragmented and have not yet been consolidated into a comprehensive child protection system framework. Cross-sectoral coordination is not fully effective, children?s and community participation tends to be procedural, and case management approaches remain predominantly reactive rather than preventive. From an SDT perspective, these conditions reflect limited system autonomy, insufficient competencies among human resources involved in the child protection system, and weak connectedness among child protection actors. This study underscores that achieving Child-Friendly Regency status does not automatically ensure the effectiveness of a child protection system. Therefore, strengthening governance arrangements, enhancing actor capacity, and designing rights-based, participatory, and context-sensitive policies are essential prerequisites for the sustainability of child protection systems at the local level.} }
