Stunting is a major child health issue caused by chronic malnutrition and negatively affects children’s growth and development. One key risk factor is the lack of maternal knowledge regarding nutrition, childcare, and stunting prevention. This community engagement program aimed to enhance mothers' understanding of stunting prevention through an interactive educational module. The activity was conducted on December 24, 2024, at Posyandu Beringin 2, Sukawali Village, Tangerang Regency, involving 46 mothers of children aged 1–5 years and 5 health cadres. The method included needs assessment, development of contextual educational materials, and implementation of education and MPASI (complementary feeding) preparation demonstrations. The results indicated a significant improvement in mothers’ knowledge post-intervention. Most children had normal nutritional status, though some were at risk of stunting, indicating the need for follow-up. This program demonstrated that the use of educational modules and the active involvement of community health cadres are effective in increasing maternal awareness about the importance of nutrition during the first 1000 days of life. In conclusion, strengthening mothers’ roles through community-based education is an effective and sustainable strategy for stunting prevention.
