SOSIALISASI PENCEGAHAN STUNTING DENGAN PEMBERIAN TABLET TAMBAH DARAH PADA REMAJA DI SMA NEGERI 1 WARINGINKURUNG

Abstract

Stunting is a condition of failure to thrive due to toddlers experiencing chronic malnutrition and recurrent infections, especially in the First 1000 Days of Life (HPK). This has an impact on the growth and development of toddlers both in the short and long term. In order to break the chain, the participation of various parties in stunting prevention efforts needs to be socialized immediately. For this reason, stunting prevention efforts are needed as early as possible by involving the role of adolescents as agents of change. This socialization program aims to educate adolescents to gain an understanding of the fulfillment of balanced nutrition to prevent stunting. Armed with the understanding they have, adolescents are expected to be able to implement it in everyday life and become a quality generation not only for themselves and their future, but also for the surrounding environment. This socialization program is carried out offline with the method carried out by providing counseling to students of SMA Negeri 1 Waringinkurung and continued to give blood-added tablets to students. In order for the understanding that has been gained by adolescents to have a positive impact, it is necessary to have a sustainable education program and assistance to the role that adolescents can play in the community
