Abstract
Family health is greatly influenced by the knowledge and balanced nutrition practices of housewives, who play a key role in managing family food. However, many housewives still lack understanding of the principles of balanced nutrition, both in food selection and in daily meal preparation. This community service activity aims to improve housewives’ knowledge and awareness of balanced nutrition through a community education program. The methods used included counseling, interactive discussions, and hands-on menu planning practice. The participants consisted of 40 housewives from X Subdistrict, Y City. The evaluation results showed a significant increase of 35% in participants’ knowledge level after the program. Furthermore, there was an improvement in their motivation to apply balanced nutrition practices in the family setting. This program proved effective in strengthening the understanding and practical skills of housewives regarding balanced nutrition as a preventive effort against nutritional problems at the household level.
