Iis Pusparina, Filia Sofiani Ikasari

Abstract


The lack of cadres' understanding of the content and function of the Child Development Card/KKA has resulted in minimal information being conveyed to mothers during Posyandu.  As a result, early detection of growth and developmental disorder particularly stunting, has not been optimal. Therefore, efforts are needed to increase the capacity of Posyandu cadres and they are able to educate mothers use the KKA. This activity aims to improve Posyandu cadres' understanding of utilizing the KKA as a promotive and preventive effort for early detection of stunting. The community service method used education to provide Posyandu cadres with an understanding of how to fill out the KKA using pre and post-test questionnaires. The results showed an increase in cadres' understanding from 60% to 100% in the good category post-test.  It can be concluded that increasing cadres' capacity through education on KKA utilization is effective improving Posyandu cadres' understanding of stunting prevention.
