Almost all regions of Indonesia have stunting problems, including Tongas Subdistrict, Probolinggo Regency, therefore it is necessary to empower the community to deal with the stunting problem. Therefore, the Tongas Health Center launched a stunting care welijo program which aims to empower the community to overcome the stunting problem in Tongas District, one of which is Sumendi Village.
