Abstract

Stunting remains a chronic nutritional problem that requires the active involvement of health cadres as the frontline workers in Integrated Health Posts (Posyandu). This community service program aimed to improve the knowledge, motivation, and skills of health cadres in preventing stunting in Kampung Jawa Village, Solok City. The participants were 47 health cadres who attended a training session on July 30, 2025, at PAUD Kasih Mama. The implementation methods included preparation, educational sessions using lectures and discussions, practical training on measuring body weight and height, recording data in the Maternal and Child Health (MCH) handbook, and monitoring and evaluation through a knowledge test. The results showed that 81.0% of cadres had good knowledge, while 19.0% had low knowledge. All cadres (100%) were able to perform anthropometric measurements, record data in the MCH handbook, and provide education to mothers of toddlers at Posyandu. In conclusion, cadre empowerment effectively improved the capacity of health cadres in stunting prevention and should be implemented continuously to support the acceleration of stunting reduction in Solok City.

Abstract

This community service aimed to increase the knowledge and awareness of mothers of toddlers in preventing stunting in Kampung Jawa Village, Solok City. The activity was conducted on August 26, 2025, targeting mothers of toddlers, health workers, cadres, and community leaders. The implementation methods included lectures, discussions, question-and-answer sessions, pre- and post-tests of knowledge, weighing, measuring children’s height, and providing education on balanced nutrition, exclusive breastfeeding, nutritious complementary feeding, and clean and healthy living behaviors. The results showed a significant improvement in mothers’ knowledge about stunting, as reflected by the majority of participants (72%) having good understanding after the intervention. This program also motivated mothers to actively monitor their children’s growth and development at the integrated health posts (posyandu). The active participation of cadres and support from local authorities further strengthened the program’s success. In conclusion, empowering mothers of toddlers proved effective in increasing awareness of stunting prevention, supporting the creation of a healthy, smart, and stunting-free generation in Kampung Jawa. This program is recommended to be continued sustainably and serve as a model for similar interventions in other areas.
