Our Impact

In our journey of handling health care services, we have realized, discrimination and stigma are big barriers to the eradication of Leprosy and diseases. In the year 1987, KNEUS started working in 57 leprosy colonies in the western UP and treated over 5,000 leprosy patients. In 1992, this work was extended to villages and cities, where through house-to-house surveys and health education programs patients were detected and treated. The Leprosy focused services carried out by the organization have been extended to tuberculosis after the integration of leprosy treatment into general health in 2003. The systematic and scientific approach planned and implemented by KNEUS has yielded the sired result several folds. It has a long history of supporting health services at the community level, often with remarkable effectiveness and rapport with communities.
