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.
