Deteksi Dini dan Edukasi Pencegahan Stunting melalui Posyandu dan Kelas Ibu Balita di RA Madania Joho Pace Nganjuk

The integrated early stunting detection and education program at RA Madania Joho Pace combines Posyandu services and Mother-Toddler Classes to identify and address at-risk children. Key activities include monthly anthropometric screenings (weight/height, mid-upper arm circumference) conducted by trained teachers, followed by spiritually contextualized nutrition education for mothers. Measurement data is digitally shared with Posyandu for risk mapping, while collaborative nutrition sessions (teachers-cadres-nutritionists) teach the use of local nutrient-rich foods like eggs and fish. This integration model achieved an 8% reduction in stunting-risk cases and a 25% increase in maternal knowledge. Primary challenges were low father participation (15%) and limited measurement tools. The program demonstrates school-Posyandu collaboration as an effective stunting prevention strategy for rural Indonesia.
