ABSTRAK Balita merupakan kelompok umur yang sering mengalami kekurangan gizi dan stunting merupakan dampak dari masalah gizi balita. Stunting merupakan gambaran terhambatnya pertumbuhan sebagai akibat dari kurangnya asupan zat gizi dalam jangka waktu yang lama. Persentasi status gizi balita pendek di Indonesia Tahun 2013 mencapai 37,2%, angka ini lebih besar dari Tahun 2010 sebesar 35,6%, dan Tahun 2017 sebesar 36,8%, tidak menunjukkan penurunan/perbaikan yang signifikan. Pola asuh orang tua merupakan masalah yang dapat mempengaruhi terjadinya stunting pada balita. Pola asuh orang tua yang kurang memiliki peluang lebih besar anak terkena stunting. Maka dari itu pola asuh gizi pada ibu hamil dan juga ibu balita sangat penting ditingkatkan untuk menjadi lebih baik. Karena apabila pola asuh gizi sudah baik, tentunya akan berdampak pada pemenuhan kebutuhan gizi pada ibu hamil dan juga pada anak balita. Hasil dari penyuluhan kesehatan yang dilakukan dalam kegiatan pengabdian masyarakat ini telah meningkatkan pengetahuan ibu tentang pencegahan stunting dengan perbikan pola asuh gizi mulai dari masa kehamilan hingga usia anak balita. Kata Kunci: Kekurangan Gizi, Stunting, Penyuluhan ABSTRACT Toddlers are an age group that often experience malnutrition and stunting is the impact of under-five nutrition problems. Stunting is a picture of stunted growth as a result of lack of nutrient intake for a long time. The percentage of short toddlers' nutritional status in Indonesia in 2013 reached 37.2%, this figure was higher than in 2010 at 35.6%, and in 2017 at 36.8%, showing no significant decline/improvement. Parenting is a problem that can affect the occurrence of stunting in toddlers. Poor parenting has a greater chance of children being stunted. Therefore, it is very important to improve the nutritional parenting pattern for pregnant women and mothers under five. Because if the nutritional parenting pattern is good, it will certainly have an impact on meeting the nutritional needs of pregnant women and also children under five. The results of health counseling carried out in this community service activity have increased mother's knowledge about stunting prevention by improving nutritional parenting patterns from pregnancy to toddler age.Keywords: Malnutrition, Stunting, Counseling
