The provision of appropriate complementary food for breast milk (MP-ASI) is essential to meet the nutritional needs of infants aged 6-24 months. This study analyzes the relationship between maternal behavior, including knowledge, attitudes, and actions, with MP-ASI provision at the Gumpang Health Center, Gayo Lues Regency, Aceh Province. A quantitative method with a descriptive correlational design and cross-sectional approach was used. The sample consisted of 24 mothers with infants aged 6-24 months, selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected via questionnaires and analyzed using the chi-square test. Results showed that most respondents were aged 26-30 years (45.8%), had a high school education (62.5%), and worked as housewives (37.5%). Bivariate analysis indicated a significant relationship between maternal knowledge and MP-ASI provision (p = 0.007), maternal attitudes and MP-ASI provision (p = 0.003), and maternal actions and MP-ASI provision (p = 0.001). Mothers with good knowledge, attitudes, and actions were more likely to provide complementary feeding according to nutritional guidelines. In conclusion, maternal behavior, encompassing knowledge, attitudes, and actions, significantly influences MP-ASI provision. Strengthening maternal education and implementing community-based interventions are necessary to promote optimal infant nutrition.

Based on the record owned by the cadre, there are currently 97 babies and toddlers. However, the attendance rate of mothers and toddlers at the Mawar Indah Posyandu  (integrated health service post) averages only 35% each month. This low attendance rate attracted researchers to initiate a community counseling program with goals to increase awareness and participation among mothers of infants and toddlers in the area.  The approach to community empowerment adopted in this study is centered on a public health education campaign, highlighting the critical role of Posyandu in supporting the growth and development of infants and toddlers. The initiative included key steps starting with presenting the benefits of Posyandu for children's growth and developments, engaging participants in a discussion session, and providing door prizes as incentives. The result of the outreach program is attended by 28 mothers along with their children. However, at this level of attendance achieved an average at 28.8%, falling short of the defined success indicators and lower than the previous rate. This outcome was influenced by several factors as outlined in H.L. Bloom’s theory, including environmental factors, individual behavior, healthcare services, and genetic predispositions. The findings indicate that despite efforts to increase awareness and participation, the involvement of mothers with infants and toddlers in the area remains insufficient. Contributing factors include environmental, behavioral, and healthcare service factors. To achieve more optimal results, improvements in these aspects are essential to increase maternal participation in Posyandu programs.
