Stunting causes obstacles in achieving children's physical and cognitive potential, therefore it is very important to understand from the start about stunting, the causal factors, and also preventive and curative steps in dealing with stunting.

The location for this Public Health Service activity is Cibunar Village, Sumedang Regency, West Java. The method of implementing the activity is in the form of a presentation by the resource person, question and answer discussion, concluding. Counseling participants are parents (father and/or mother). Measuring the increase in participants' knowledge about stunting is carried out by distributing pre and post-questionnaires.
