The method of this Community Service Activity is through socialization and triggering to 34 STBM cadres from 4 kelurahan and related parties in the Puskesmas and Kec. Rumbai Pesisir in February 2021. The results of socialization and discussions with cadres stated that generally the problem for drinking water is that they consume gallons of drinking water and also use drinking water that is cooked by themselves from PDAM and also wells whose quality has not been tested for quality standards so that they require supervision and also outreach from the health department. STBM, District and Community Health Center cadres need support from academics through community service activities to provide input and evaluation so that the program remains enthusiastic about running, especially during the Covid 19 period and also stunting prevention.
