Abstract. Stroke is a neurovascular disease and is the second cause of death and the third cause of disease in the world. The prevalence of stroke in Indonesia has increased. The increasing prevalence of stroke can be caused by low stroke prevention. Factors that influence stroke prevention behavior are knowledge and awareness. Efforts to reduce the incidence of stroke are primary prevention. This community service program made 2 basic efforts in stroke prevention. The first activity was detection of stroke risk using the stroke risk scorecard, examination of blood pressure and body weight, and measurement of blood glucose and cholesterol levels. The second one was providing education. This program was carried out at Kendangan, Caturharjo, Sleman, Yogyakarta. Stroke risk detection was attended by 67 people. The results of risk factor detection found that there were 4 people at high risk of stroke (6%), and 63 people were at low risk of stroke (94%). There were also other health issues found; 31 people with hypertension (46%), 26 people with hypercholesterolemia (38%), 7 people smoking (10%), 50 people never exercise (74%), and 7 people with overweight (10%). Education of stroke was attended by 36 people. The knowledge had increased after given education with an average pretest score of 59.41 (with minimum score of 20 and maximum score of 100) and an average post-test score of 74.41 (with minimum score of 30 and maximum score of 100). Stroke risk detection and primary prevention education are efforts to prevent stroke early, so they need to be done continuously.
