<![CDATA[Stunting has become a significant national health issue in Indonesia, requiring the active participation of various parties, including university students, in prevention efforts. This community service activity was conducted in Cibarengkok Village, Bojongpicung District, Cianjur Regency, which has been identified as a stunting-prone village. The main objective was to determine the level of awareness of stunting among Cibarengkok Village residents and identify efforts to increase it. Participants in this community service activity were toddlers and pregnant women in the area. Using descriptive qualitative methods, data were collected through in-depth field observations. The results showed that community awareness of stunting in Cibarengkok Village remains relatively low. This is evident in the fact that many residents still do not understand the definition, causative factors, or long-term impacts of stunting on child health and development. As a solution, efforts were made to increase community awareness by implementing counseling programs at 7 integrated health posts (Posyandu), which serve as the main forum for preventing and addressing nutritional problems. Through the "YES Project" activities and educational seminars, it is hoped that behavioral changes and increased public understanding will lead to a healthier, stunting-free generation.]]>
