Abstract

Stunting is a major nutritional problem among toddlers in Indonesia that remains unresolved. According to the 2024 Indonesian Nutritional Status Survey, 16.8% of toddlers are underweight, 19.8% are stunted, and 6.2% are malnourished. According to the WHO, the interaction of various factors causing stunting consists of four factors: family and household factors, breastfeeding, complementary feeding, and infection. One family and household factor can be caused by teenage pregnancy or unwanted pregnancies. These problems begin with premarital sexual behavior, which leads to pregnancy and abortion. One effort to address adolescent reproductive health issues is through the provision of adolescent reproductive health services. Adolescent reproductive health services aim to prevent and protect adolescents from risky sexual behavior that can impact reproductive health. The methods used include education, discussion, and counseling related to adolescent reproductive health and stunting prevention. The results of reproductive health education resulted in a 29-point increase in scores.

Abstract

The postpartum period is a critical time associated with various health risks, particularly for high-risk mothers. Limited healthcare personnel available for monitoring necessitates the empowerment of community health volunteers (*kader*) to assist with early detection and support for postpartum mothers. This initiative aimed to enhance the capacity of these volunteers by optimizing conventional monitoring methods and guiding the use of the Maternal and Child Health (MCH) Handbook (*Buku KIA*) in the care of high-risk postpartum mothers in Salatiga. An active participatory partnership approach was employed from August to November 2025, comprising three stages: preparation and coordination, volunteer training, and guidance and supervision of home visits. The program involved volunteers, high-risk postpartum mothers, university students, and faculty members. Results demonstrated improved volunteer knowledge and skills regarding the detection of postpartum danger signs and the use of the MCH Handbook as a monitoring tool. All volunteers accurately completed monitoring forms and provided support in accordance with postpartum care standards. This support contributed to adherence to postpartum visit schedules, successful physical recovery, smooth lactation, and the absence of maternal complications or psychological issues.
