Sexual violence against children has different traumatic impacts on a person and can be very worrying because it can have long-term impacts throughout a child's life. Providing teaching to children about sexual education requires a method that is appropriate to the stage of child development. The ACEJ (Active, Creative, Effective, and Joyful) method can be applied to school-age children, creating a fun learning environment by preparing children to acquire skills, knowledge, and attitudes to prepare for life in the future. Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the effect of health education using the ACEJ (Active, Creative, Effective, and Joyful) method on efforts to prevent sexual violence in children. This type of research uses Pre-Experimental Research Methods. This pre-experimental research design used the One Group Pretest Posttest Design. The method of sampling in this study was the total sampling technique. The population in this study consisted of 28 patients. Univariate and bivariate data analysis is Wilcoxon. Of the 28 respondents, it can be seen that in the intervention group, the average effort to prevent sexual violence before being given ACEJ health education was 2.58 ± 0.441, while after being given ACEJ health education it decreased to 1.05 ± 0.418. Based on the Wilcoxon test, a p value of 0.000 (p <0.05) was obtained. Conclusion: There is an influence of health education using the Acej method (actic, creative, effective, and joyful) on efforts to prevent sexual violence in children.
