Hello Everyone,
Greetings from the ASSOCIATION FOR RURAL AND TRIBAL IMPROVEMENT!
In the initial stages of our project, we found that the rural and tribal communities in India placed little importance on the issue of leprosy and lacked adequate knowledge about it. To address this, we organized awareness and education programs in the rural and tribal villages of the Tiruvannamalai district. Our team engaged with young men, women, and elders, particularly women and children, in our service area.
We also visited homes to assess community members for symptoms of leprosy and to provide appropriate follow-up care. The leprosy eradication project we implemented in our target area has had a significant impact, raising awareness about leprosy and related issues. Our team is dedicated to ensuring that community members are fully informed about leprosy and its symptoms.
These initiatives have made meaningful and respectful contributions to the community. Thank you for your support and guidance in these efforts.
Best regards,
M. KANNAMMAL
