Abstract

Stunting refers to the condition of a child's height being shorter than their age, which is caused by a long-term lack of nutrition during the first 1000 days of life (HPK). As adults, children who are stunted are vulnerable to non-communicable diseases. Apart from nutritional factors, stunting is caused by a lack of public knowledge. Because most people do not understand correctly about stunting, and think that stunting or the term commonly used in society is a hereditary factor. The purpose of this community service is to increase public knowledge through counseling about stunting at the Cenrana District Posyandu. The method used is interactive lectures and questions and answers and this activity will be carried out in August 2021. Based on the results of the pretest and post test which were attended by 20 respondents, it can be stated that the results of the pre test regarding the level of knowledge of respondents regarding stunting prevention by 5 respondents (25%) understand regarding stunting prevention, while based on the results of the post test there were 18 respondents (90%) who understood stunting prevention. The enthusiasm of the participants in participating in the training activities was also very good.
