Leprosy is a communicable disease that can cause permanent physical deformities. According to data from Health Department of Blora District, it was known that Public Health Center of Kunduran and Bogorejo had the highest new cases, with an increasing trend during the last 3 years.

This research is a descriptive observational with cross sectional design. Population of this research are 83 people affected by leprosy, registered in two PHCs during the last 3 years. These results indicated that the proportion of disability is higher in lepers with non productive age (38,5%), male (32,0%), having low education (36,8%), having good knowledge (55,6%), having no job (55,6%), multibacillary leprosy (36,5%), experiencing lepra reaction (50,0%), having delay of treatment >1 year (44,4%), having nerve impairment (100,0%), doing wound care (100,0%), and without support of family members (33,3%).
