what we do

Our work

People affected by leprosy need more than medicine. TLM programmes deliver compassion and action. While it identifies

and assists people to cure and treat physical impairments through reconstructive surgery, it also invests in education, vocational

training, counseling and community based socio-economic rehabilitation activities.

The Leprosy Mission provides comprehensive services to meet the needs of people, families and

communities affected by leprosy.
