Abstract
Prospective brides are a crucial group as early determinants in optimizing the First 1000 Days of Life period, which is essential in the effort to reduce stunting. They are a priority target for mentoring and reporting, serving as a foundation for maximizing the implications of this critical period. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of the Family Assistance Team in reducing the risk of stunting among prospective brides in Jombang Regency. A descriptive qualitative approach was used in this research, employing interviews and observations for data collection. The findings indicate that the program effectively targets prospective brides, providing assistance at least three months prior to marriage. The Family Assistance Team delivers Information, Education, and Communication (IEC) to ensure that prospective brides, who will soon become part of childbearing couples, understand the importance of optimizing the First 1000 Days of Life period. This aligns with the objectives of the Family Assistance Team formed by the National Population and Family Planning Agency, aimed at assisting prospective brides as part of the broader effort to accelerate stunting reduction by promoting awareness of the significance of the First 1000 Days of Life.
