Summary This paper describes how the innovative LePSA technique can be used by community health workers to appropriately educate and increase compliance among leprosy patients. A lesson plan illustrating the interactive nature of the technique in a hypothetical Third World community is presented . The lesson plan, using MDT default, shows how the technique can elicit individual participation in a group setting and serve as both an educational and a behaviour change tool.
