Abstract: One of the purposes of maternal and child health (MCH) program is the autonomy of the family in maintaining maternal and child health. Supposing every mother has a Maternal Child Health (MCH) Handbook and know how to use it, her child health will surely remain supervised. Some reasons for not using MCH Handbook optimally are by virtue of the insuficient knowledge of MCH Handbook utilization and the low educational level. This study aims to asses the effect of MCH Handbook utilization training on maternal capability in early detecting development and stimulating growth of children under the age of five years...........
