Stunting merupakan permasalahan yang semakin banyak ditemukan di negara berkembang, termasuk Indonesia. Prevalensi balita pendek mengalami peningkatan dari tahun 2016 yaitu 27,5% menjadi 29,6% pada tahun 2017 (Kemenkes, 2018). Pada tahun 2015, hasil Pemantauan Status Gizi (PSG) prevalensi stunting di Jawa Timur 27,1% dan di Surabaya adalah 20,3% (Kementerian Kesehatan RI, 2016). Kelurahan Medokan Semampir Sebagai wilayah mitra program ini merupakan salah satu wilayah kerja Puskesmas Keputih Surabaya. Di sana stunting masih menjadi masalah serius. Berbasarkan data di 2017 prevalensi stunting sebesar 30,48% di Kelurahan Medokan Semampir. Salah satu faktor yang berpengaruh pada kejadian stunting adalah makanan pengganti asi (MP-ASI) yang kurang tepat dan sehat. Pola makan ibu dapat berkontribusi dalam meningkatkan angka kejadian stunring. Ibu memiliki tanggung jawab utama untuk memilih, menyiapkan, dan menyajikan makanan bergizi untuk anak-anak mereka. Pemberdayaan masyarakat ini dilakukan sebagai upaya penyelesaian masalah gizi anak stunting. Luaran yang diharapkan melalui program ini adalah modul pembuatan menu modifikasi makanan sehat, produk makanan dan meningkatkan status kesehatan keluarga terutama anak. Dengan upaya perbaikan gizi berbasis modifikasi makanan pengganti asi (MP-ASI) yang ekonomis serta menarik yang memiliki manfaat meningkatkan status kesehatan anak diharapkan angka stunting dapat dikurangi dan masyarakat juga bisa memperoleh keuntungan dari program tersebut.Kata Kunci : Makanan, Pemberdayaan, Stunting

<p><em>The challenge in the implementation of Islamic laws that moslems in Indonesia face does not have to do with the struggle for recognition by national laws. Instead, it has to do with trying to clarify their position among various social groups. It also examine how much Islamic laws contribute values that stimulate development, order, peace and welfare for the nation and country. Historically, Qur’anic legal verses were revealed mostly after the Messenger migrated to Medina, while Meccan verses are identified as to consolidate the ummah so that they were ready to bear the burden imposed by the Islamic laws (taklif).</em></p><p><em>The regulation</em><em>s</em><em> reflecting syari’ah laws issued by </em><em>the </em><em>local government</em><em>s</em><em> and </em><em>their</em><em> implementation </em><em>tend to be euphoric taking the chance given by the reform. They have not reflected different social groups on which the regulations will be imposed. Islamic laws as the basic consideration in formulating the local government regulations seem not to have accommodated religious elements comprehensively, i.e. integrating aqidah, akhlaq and syari’ah guiding people’s behavior conceptually as well as in practice. Therefore, partial implementation of Islamic syari’ah only will result in pseudo-religiosity, and tend to become a problem for the ummah themselves.</em><em></em></p>
Background: The number block is a media that Montessori created in 1909. This block media is made of a wooden square and consists of 10 blocks with red and blue colors. Each red and blue segment represents the sum of 1 block. According to Fridani in Kompas Daily (2010), the block game itself has several advantages, including that children can recognize mathematical concepts because by playing blocks, children get to know more concepts - less, the same and not the same, the concepts of numbers and numbers and science. Such as calculating, classification, gravity, and stabilization.Objective: To determine the effect of number blocks on increasing numeracy skills in mentally disabled childrenMethod: The research design was a pre-experimental design with one group pre-test - a post-test design approachResults: Before being given the intervention to play numeric blocks, most of the ten respondents (59%) had the level of numeracy (analyzing number symbols, addition, and subtraction) in children with mental retardation, which was in the low category. Mental is in the good category for eight respondents (47%), and five respondents (29%) are included in the good category.Conclusion: There is an effect of numeracy skills on children with mental retardation before and after the intervention to play number blocks.
