Abstract

Anemia remains a global public health problem and continues to pose a significant burden in many developing countries. Several national and regional studies have reported that the prevalence of anemia among adolescent girls ranges from 14% to 50%, depending on location and survey methods, with many studies showing rates exceeding 30% in certain populations. Female students (santriwati) living in Islamic boarding schools (pondok pesantren) are particularly vulnerable to anemia. Common contributing factors include inadequate iron intake, irregular communal eating practices, limited nutritional knowledge, excessive menstrual bleeding, and restricted access to health services. The implementation of the community engagement program consisted of three main stages: (1) Socialization and initial hemoglobin (Hb) screening to obtain a preliminary overview of anemia status; (2) Health education and interactive discussions delivered through lectures, question-and-answer sessions, and educational video presentations; and (3) Evaluation and post-activity monitoring through joint reflections involving both the boarding school administrators and the participants. The combination of Hb screening, interactive counseling sessions, leaflet-based educational media, and institutional support from the boarding schools proved effective in creating a conducive environment for promoting healthy behaviors. However, challenges such as limited availability of Hb testing equipment and negative perceptions toward iron supplementation still need to be addressed through continuous approaches and cross-sectoral collaboration.

Abstract

Stunting remains a chronic nutritional problem that affects physical growth, cognitive development, and human resource quality. Prevention efforts should begin during the preconception period through improving nutritional knowledge among prospective brides and grooms. Community health cadres play a strategic role as health educators at the community level. This community service program aimed to enhance cadres’ awareness, commitment, and knowledge regarding balanced nutrition for prospective couples as a strategy to prevent stunting. A community-based participatory approach was employed through interactive education sessions, group discussions, case studies, demonstrations of balanced local food menus, and pre-test and post-test evaluations. A total of 35 health cadres participated in the program. Most participants were aged 31–50 years (57%) and had secondary education (66%). The proportion of cadres with good knowledge increased from 57% in the pre-test to 86% in the post-test. Qualitatively, cadres demonstrated improved awareness, active participation, and commitment to integrating nutrition education into routine posyandu activities and counseling for prospective couples. The program positively strengthened cadres’ capacity as health promotion agents and shows potential sustainability through community empowerment. Preconception nutrition education for cadres is recommended as a promotive and preventive strategy to accelerate stunting reduction at the community level.
