Rendahnya pemahaman tentang gizi seimbang, kebiasaan konsumsi makanan cepat saji, serta minimnya edukasi gizi di lingkungan sekolah menjadi faktor penyebab yang perlu mendapat perhatian. Tujuan pengabdian ini, untuk meningkatkan pengetahuan dan kesadaran orangtua siswa terhadap pentingnya pola makan gizi seimbang melalui pendekatan komunikasi kesehatan partisipatif. Mitra sasaran pengabdian SD Negeri 2 Regol Garut, Orangtua Siswa kelas VI, dengan jumlah 32. Metode pelaksanaan pengabdian dilakukan dengan tahapan (1) sosialisasi literasi gizi seimbang melalui media interaktif dan ceramah edukatif; (2) diskusi partisipatif terkait kebiasaan makan sehat; serta (3) evaluasi perubahan pengetahuan dan sikap melalui observasi, dan post-test.

AbstractThe nutritional condition of elementary school-aged children remains a significant issue in public health development. The low level of understanding of balanced nutrition, fast food consumption habits, and the lack of nutrition education in the school environment are contributing factors that require attention. The purpose of this community service is to increase the knowledge and awareness of parents of students regarding the importance of a balanced nutritional diet through a participatory health communication approach. The community service partners of SD Negeri 2 Regol Garut are 32 parents of grade VI students. The community service implementation method is carried out in stages: (1) socialization of balanced nutrition literacy through interactive media and educational lectures; (2) participatory discussions related to healthy eating habits; and (3) evaluation of changes in knowledge and attitudes through observation and post-tests. The participatory communication approach is used to ensure a two-way dialogue between facilitators and parents, so that health messages can be understood and internalized more effectively. The results of the activity showed an increase in students' understanding of the concept of balanced nutrition, awareness in choosing nutritious foods, and active parental involvement in coordinating nutritional literacy activities. Furthermore, the school environment began to show behavioral changes toward healthier behavior through the "Healthy Lunch Together" activity. This activity demonstrated the effectiveness of participatory health communication in fostering a sustainable balanced nutrition literacy movement at SDN 2 Regol, Garut.
