This community service project aimed to enhance public knowledge about environmental sanitation as a preventive measure against stunting at Posyandu Cipajaran, located within the Sangkali Health Center area in Tasikmalaya City. The activity was carried out in three stages: (1) Preparation, involving coordination with local health officials to determine logistics and the development of educational materials and assessment tools; (2) Implementation, which consisted of health education sessions delivered through lectures supported by PowerPoint presentations, followed by interactive discussions; and (3) Evaluation, where participants completed both pre-test and post-test questionnaires to measure knowledge improvement. The results demonstrated a significant increase in public understanding, with the average knowledge score rising from 38.91 to 63.29. Additionally, the proportion of participants with a good level of knowledge increased markedly, from 3.2% before the intervention to 22.6% afterward. These findings indicate that targeted health education can effectively improve community awareness and support stunting prevention efforts.
