Since 2013, there has been a consistent decline in stunting rates starting from 37.2%, decreasing in 2016, 2018, 2019, 2021 and in 2022 it will be at 21.6%. The reduction in jackfruit stunting that has been targeted by the Government until the end of 2024 is 14%, so there needs to be a reduction in stunting of 3.8% every year. Pregnant women in North Tapanuli Regency have a prevalence of anemia, namely 58.05% of the total number of pregnant women of 7443 in 2021. One form of support for government programs in preventing stunting is carrying out activities focused on 1000 HPK, providing nutritional support food based on local food, So that is the background for community service carried out on pregnant women in the form of counseling on stunting prevention, giving Jamu biscuits (a combination of sweet potato leaves and tilapia fish) and checking Hb levels carried out at the Siborong-Borong Community Health Center. Participants in community service activities were 32 pregnant women, with the result being an increase in the average knowledge and changes in attitudes regarding stunting prevention in pregnant women after the counseling was carried out. After giving Jamu biscuits, an increase in Hb levels was obtained, previously 18 people were not anemic (normal), 10 people were mildly anemic and 4 people were moderately anemic. After being evaluated 4 weeks later, 28 people were not anemic (normal) and 4 people were mildly anemic. There is a need to use local food to improve the nutrition and health of pregnant women. Herbal medicine biscuits can be prepared at home because they are useful for increasing the mother's Hb levels. To prevent the risk of stunting in pregnant women, pregnant women should routinely have their health checked at the nearest health facility. Keywords: Counseling, Stunting, Hb, Jamu Biscuits]]>
