Abstract

High stunting rates in rural areas are frequently driven by limited nutritional literacy and suboptimal parenting practices. This community service program aims to strengthen the capacity of the community in Dusun Krajan 2 for stunting prevention through specific nutritional interventions. The methodology utilized was Participatory Learning and Action (PLA), encompassing balanced nutrition education, demonstrations of animal-protein-based complementary feeding (MP-ASI) preparation, and supervised feeding practices. The results demonstrated an improvement in respondents' understanding of toddler nutrition and the partners' ability to independently prepare supplementary menus. The direct distribution of additional complementary food proved effective in enhancing toddlers' access to essential nutrients, including calcium and protein. This program recommends integrating parenting education into routine Posyandu services to ensure the sustainability of stunting prevention initiatives at the village level.
