Booklet: Social protection for persons affected by leprosy in India
The Leprosy Mission International .
2025;
Access to financial resources isn’t just about meeting basic needs—it’s about dignity and independence. When persons affected by leprosy can access social protection, they’re not seen as a burden but as valued members of their families and communities.
That’s why Suresh and Mangala, one of our leprosy champions, researched all the social protection schemes available in their state in India and created a booklet to share with others affected by leprosy. Their work is helping people reclaim their independence and find a route back into family life.
