This study aims to examine the relationship between risk factors and the incidence of stunting in children aged 24-59 months in the work area of ​​the Pesantren I Health Center, Kediri City in 2023. A total of 189 toddler samples were randomly selected and the data were analyzed using the Chi-Square test. Mothers with low levels of education have a higher risk of having children with stunting (RR 0.3, p <0.05), while medium and high levels of education are not significantly related.
