Abstract

The role of mothers is very strategic in preventing stunting through fulfilling nutritional needs during pregnancy, providing exclusive breastfeeding, implementing balanced nutritional complementary feeding (MP-ASI), and regularly monitoring child growth and development. Mothers also play a role in maintaining environmental cleanliness, accessing basic health services (ANC, immunization, iron supplementation), and implementing responsive parenting practices. Objective: This Community Service Program aims to improve mother’s knowledge in preventing and managing stunting through nutrition education, growth and development monitoring. Methods: The methods used in this program included screening, lectures, and discussions, with sequential stages consisting of field observation and problem identification, proposing solutions, activity planning, implementation, and evaluation. Activities were carried out through interactive counseling sessions, demonstrations of growth monitoring, and screening or detection of child growth status. Results: The results showed a significant increase in mothers’ knowledge. The proportion of mothers with knowledge increased from 30% to 90% after receiving the educational intervention. Conclusion: The educational activities implemented were proven effective in strengthening mothers’ capacity in stunting prevention and have the potential to reduce stunting risk at the household and community levels. Structured and targeted education needs to be continuously enhanced as part of strategies to accelerate stunting prevention.

Abstract

Adolescence is a transitional period from childhood to adulthood characterized by biological, emotional, social, and cognitive changes. During this period, adolescents’ reproductive organs begin to function actively, making them a vulnerable age group to various reproductive health problems, such as unintended pregnancy, sexually transmitted infections, and early marriage. These problems are often influenced by adolescents’ low level of knowledge regarding reproductive health. Adolescent reproductive health refers to a healthy condition related to the reproductive system, functions, and processes, encompassing physical, mental, social, and cultural aspects. Therefore, maintaining reproductive health during adolescence is very important as a preventive effort against future health risks. The purpose of this counseling activity was to increase and enhance adolescents’ knowledge of reproductive health. The method used was health education through interactive counseling. Based on the results of a self-assessment survey, it was found that the main problem was a lack of reproductive health knowledge among 30 adolescents. To address this issue, counseling was conducted covering the definition of reproductive health, common reproductive health problems, and ways to maintain reproductive health. After the counseling session, participants showed high enthusiasm for the material presented through leaflets and video media.
