Initial survey results indicate that the community still lacks awareness in waste sorting and utilization, underutilizes yard land, and has yet to optimize the processing of nutritious food from available local plant sources. The Thematic Community Service Program (KKN-T) of Alma Ata University aims to increase community awareness and skills in stunting prevention, environmental management, and the use of local resources. This program was conducted over two months by nine students from various study programs, working together with community partners in Plemantung Hamlet, involving PKK mothers, adolescents, and school students. The implementation method consists of five stages : planning, preparation, implementation, monitoring, and evaluation. Activities include socialzation on nutritious food processing, prevention of early marriage, utilization of yard land, and house waste recycling. The results show an increased awarness among the community regarding the importance of waste management, yard land utilization, and processing of local food ingredients as efforts to support stunting prevention. This KKN-T program also succeeded in boosting the participation of adolescents and community groups in maintaining health and environmental cleanliness. Therefore, the KKN-T activities in Plemantung Hamlet provide a tangible contribution in supporting stunting prevention while promoting self-reliance and the welfare of the Plemantung Hamlet community.
