The results showed an 85% increase in participants’ understanding based on simple pre- and post-tests, along with high enthusiasm and a strong commitment to practice healthy lifestyles within families. Additionally, posyandu cadres improved their capacity to independently provide health education to the community. In conclusion, the community health education program at Posyandu Banjar Purnama Asri was effective in enhancing public awareness and knowledge of health issues while strengthening the role of posyandu as the frontline of community-based health services.
