Pundungsari Village is one of the stunting cluster villages in Klaten Regency which initially used a manual reporting system for toddler health data collection. The prevalence of stunting in Klaten Regency increased to 18.2% in 2022. This community service activity aims to empower posyandu cadres in the early detection of growth and development, as well as stunting incidence using a digital reporting application. The implementation method applied includes training and mentoring on the implementation of the digital reporting system for posyandu cadres held at the Pundungsari Village Hall. The target of this activity involved 80 health cadres assigned to monitor 250 toddlers in the area. The results of the activity showed that the digital reporting application was successfully implemented in the field and launched directly by the Head of Pundungsari Village. Posyandu cadres are able to download, operate, and use the application properly for recording and reporting toddler data in real time. In conclusion, the use of digital-based reporting greatly facilitates the coordination process, accelerates the identification of at-risk toddlers, and supports community independence in monitoring nutritional status and early detection of growth and development more accurately.
