Abstract

Background: Stunting is a condition of stunted growth due to chronic malnutrition and repeated infections, impacting a child's physical and cognitive development. Prevention can begin in adolescence, particularly in young women who are prospective mothers. The role of parents in providing balanced nutrition and PHBS is crucial to reducing stunting rates. In Yogyakarta Special Region, the stunting prevalence is 18%, with Gunungkidul being the highest at 22.2%. Objective: To increase parental understanding and involvement in supporting healthy eating patterns and PHBS to prevent stunting in adolescents. Methods: This community service activity lasted four weeks with 35 parents of students from Patuk 1 Junior High School as participants. The program included socialization and education on balanced nutrition and PHBS, training in developing healthy menus, interactive discussions, and monitoring and evaluation of changes in family eating and hygiene patterns to prevent stunting. Results: This program increased parental understanding of balanced nutrition and PHBS, as evidenced by a 35% increase in understanding scores. Parents began adopting healthy eating patterns with more protein and vegetables. Adolescent awareness also increased, as evidenced by better personal hygiene practices and consumption of nutritious foods. Conclusion: Optimizing the role of parents in supporting balanced nutrition and PHBS has proven to be an effective step in preventing stunting in adolescents.

Abstract

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a growing health concern in Indonesia, compounded by rising smoking rates among adolescents. Increasing awareness among high school students about lung health, COPD risks, and available treatments is essential to promote healthier future generations. In response, a community service program entitled Goes to School was implemented to provide promotive and preventive health education aimed at enhancing adolescent knowledge and reducing the risk of COPD. The methods applied included interactive health education sessions, filling out pre-post-test questionnaires. The methods applied included interactive health education sessions, filling out pre-post-test questionnaires. The respondents of this program were all female (100%), with the majority aged 16 years (71.43%), and none reported being smokers. Evaluation results demonstrated an improvement in students’ knowledge levels, with mean scores increasing from 70.95 (pre-intervention) to 83.33 (post-intervention). Moreover, the proportion of students categorized as having very good knowledge rose from 38.10% to 80.95%, with the majority (62%) showing an upward shift in knowledge levels. These findings suggest that community service activities utilizing lecture and role-play methods positively impact students’ knowledge about COPD.

Abstract

Dental caries in children is a common health problem, and one way to prevent it is to practice proper toothbrushing habits. This Community Service Activity (PKM) aims to educate children at Tunas Islam Kindergarten on how to brush their teeth correctly to prevent dental caries. The methods applied include interactive health education and filling out pretest and posttest questionnaires. A total of 30 children participated in educational activities that included theory and hands-on toothbrushing practice. The pre-test and post-test evaluations showed a significant increase in knowledge of toothbrushing techniques. Before education, 60% of children did not know the right technique; after education, 85% were able to demonstrate the correct understanding, indicating the success of education in improving their understanding. In addition, most children intend to practice the habit at home and teach it to their parents. This activity is expected to have a long-term impact on improving children's dental hygiene habits and strengthening public awareness of the importance of preventing caries from an early age.

Abstract

Adolescence is a vulnerable period for risky behavior, including premarital sexual intercourse, which can potentially lead to unwanted pregnancy (KTD). Comprehensive reproductive health education is considered an effective preventive strategy. This community service activity aims to improve the understanding of students at SMA Negeri 1 Gamping, Yogyakarta, and to evaluate the effectiveness of health education in increasing adolescent knowledge about preventing premarital pregnancy. The partner for this community service implementation was SMA Negeri 1 Gamping, Yogyakarta, with 29 12th-grade students participating. The program was implemented in October 2025 with 29 12th-grade students at SMA Negeri 1 Gamping (17 boys and 12 girls). This community service implementation was carried out in three stages: preparation, implementation, and evaluation. The preparation phase included obtaining a community service permit and preparing educational materials, posters, and educational videos on preventing premarital pregnancy. The intervention consisted of a single health education session covering reproductive health, the risks of premarital sexual intercourse, and prevention methods. The evaluation phase involved distributing a post-test questionnaire to assess respondents' understanding of premarital pregnancy prevention. Effectiveness was evaluated by comparing knowledge levels before and after the counseling. Before the education, 25 people (86.2%) had good knowledge, and 4 people (13.8%) had poor knowledge. After the education, this increased to 28 people (96.6%) having good knowledge and only 1 person (3.4%) having poor knowledge. These results indicate that health education significantly improved participants' knowledge. Health education has proven effective as an intervention to increase adolescents' understanding of premarital pregnancy prevention. Similar programs are recommended for sustainable and broader implementation in schools as part of adolescent health promotion and prevention efforts.

Abstract

This activity represents a form of educational philanthropy implemented as part of the Tri Dharma of higher education and documented in this publication. Grade VII students at SMP Negeri 1 Gamping, as partners, face significant challenges with social media use in the digital era, including excessive addiction that disrupts academic performance, exposure to negative content eroding religious values and faith, rampant cyberbullying, and vulnerability to hoaxes and misinformation that foster unethical behavior. The objective is to enhance students' understanding of social media ethics and impacts while upholding religious values and faith. The implementation method employed an interactive lecture approach and discussion sessions with the implementation team (academic colleagues). Evaluations were conducted informally through observations of active participation and verbal question-and-answer sessions at the beginning and end of the activity. Results showed positive responses and high enthusiasm from students. Although lacking formal quantitative measurements (pretest-posttest), the activity was deemed successful in significantly boosting students' awareness and insights into the importance of wise and ethical social media behavior.

Abstract

Women’s mental health in the digital era faces complex challenges, particularly psychological stress arising from multiple role demands and intensive online engagement. This community service activity aimed to empower women’s mental health through mental health education and dhikr-based therapy within an online literacy community, namely a women-dominated online book discussion community consisting of adult female members who actively participate in regular digital literacy activities. The program was conducted online in December 2025 and involved 20 active participants out of 30 invited members, with inclusion criteria of adult women who were active community members and willing to participate fully in the intervention. The methods included interactive mental health education, guided dhikr therapy practice using the istighfar recitation (astagfirullahal‘adhiim), and evaluation through pretest–posttest stress assessments accompanied by qualitative feedback. The results indicated an improvement in participants’ understanding of stress management and a descriptive decrease in stress levels following the intervention. Qualitative feedback further revealed enhanced inner calmness, emotional awareness, and perceived coping capacity in daily digital activities. These findings suggest that integrating mental health education with psycho-spiritual approaches within an online literacy community has the potential to serve as an adaptive and sustainable empowerment strategy to support women’s mental well-being.

Abstract

Unhealthy snack consumption may expose young children to excessive sugar, salt, fat, microbial contamination, and prohibited food additives. This community service activity aimed to improve children's understanding of healthy and unhealthy snacks at TK Tunas Islam, Kasihan, Bantul. The activity involved 75 children from playgroup and kindergarten classes and was conducted in June 2025. The program consisted of an initial assessment using simple pictorial questions, health education through short explanations, storytelling, visual presentations, posters, and small-group discussion, followed by a final assessment using the same ten questions. All participants attended the activity. Descriptive observations showed that, before education, many children had difficulty identifying safe snacks, the consequences of unhealthy snacks, and appropriate handwashing practices. After the session, more children were able to distinguish healthy from unhealthy snacks and respond correctly to the evaluation questions. Age-appropriate stories, pictures, and interactive discussion encouraged active participation and maintained children's attention. Participatory, visually supported education is feasible for introducing healthy snack choices in early childhood settings. Regular reinforcement by teachers and parents, along with standardized follow-up evaluation, is recommended to support sustainable healthy eating habits.

Abstract

Diabetes mellitus is one of the non-communicable diseases whose prevalence continues to increase among the elderly population and remains a major challenge in community health services. Limited knowledge among older adults regarding diet, symptoms, and prevention of diabetes mellitus, combined with low levels of physical activity, constitutes a risk factor that requires a promotive and preventive approach. This community service activity aimed to improve the knowledge and attitudes of elderly participants toward diabetes mellitus and to promote regular physical activity through elderly gymnastics (senam lansia). The activity was carried out on 16 May 2026 at Posbindu Bagas Waras, Bale Asri Housing Complex, targeting elderly participants registered in the local posbindu program. The methods used included health education through interactive lectures and discussion, blood pressure and random blood glucose measurement, and elderly gymnastics guided by an instructor. Evaluation was conducted by comparing participants' knowledge before and after the education session using a questionnaire. The results showed a significant increase in participants' knowledge following the health education session, along with high enthusiasm in participating in the elderly gymnastics session. This activity is expected to serve as a sustainable effort in controlling risk factors for diabetes mellitus among elderly groups through the empowerment of posbindu programs.

Abstract

Body Mass Index (BMI) is used as an indicator of a pregnant woman’s nutritional status and as a basis for recommendations on weight gain during pregnancy. A mother’s nutritional status before and during pregnancy can affect the growth of the fetus she is carrying (Ministry of Health of the Republic of Indonesia, 2019). If a mother's nutritional status is poor, either before pregnancy or during pregnancy, or if her Body Mass Index (BMI) is low, it has a negative effect on pregnancy outcomes, usually resulting in low birth weight (LBW) or preterm birth. Measuring BMI is a simple way to monitor the nutritional status of adults, especially regarding underweight and overweight issues. BMI is calculated based on body weight in kilograms (kg) divided by height in meters squared (m²). BMI is not related to gender and applies to adults (>18 years). The normal BMI threshold for Indonesia is 18.5–25.0. Mothers with body weight below the minimum are classified as "underweight," which puts them at risk of giving birth to malnourished babies. Fetuses experiencing malnutrition. Congenital defects in babies and premature birth. Likewise, a body weight above the normal range, referred to as 'overweight,' can increase the risk of gestational diabetes, preeclampsia, macrosomia in babies, or excess body weight. Based on the description above, it can be identified that measuring BMI is very important, especially for pregnant women. Community Service was carried out on October 4, 2025, from 09:00 to 12:00. The activity involved 6 facilitators with a total of 14 pregnant participants. Most respondents were of healthy reproductive age, totaling 11 people (78.5%). Most respondents had a primigravida obstetric status, totaling 9 people (64%). The majority of respondents had normal or above-normal Body Mass Index (BMI). There was 1 respondent with a low BMI.

Abstract

Anemia is a medical condition characterized by hemoglobin (Hb) levels in the blood below normal, resulting in decreased ability of the blood to carry oxygen to body tissues. Adolescents, especially young women, are a group at high risk of experiencing anemia because the need for iron increases during growth and due to blood loss during menstruation. The prevalence of anemia among adolescents in Indonesia is still high and requires local food-based nutritional interventions for prevention. Hemacookies are designed as a snack with high iron content sourced from green spinach which can help meet adolescents' daily Fe needs. This Community Service aims to develop hemacookies as a functional food product to increase Fe intake and prevent anemia in adolescents at SMAN 1 Mlati. Respondents consumed hemacookies and then their hemoglobin levels were measured. The type of analysis used was descriptive analytic with random sample selection. The results of the community service were 34 respondents. Most of the respondents were female (30 respondents (88.24%) and had normal hemoglobin levels (23 respondents (67.65%). The average hemoglobin level of respondents was 12.81 gr / dl in the normal category. So it can be concluded that hemacookies can prevent anemia in a person.
