Hansen's Disease

Sasakawa Health Foundation has dedicated itself to the goal of a world without problems associated with Hansen’s disease. Through our activities we aim to realize a society in which those who might have the disease, or are receiving treatment or have completed treatment can access necessary medical and social services without fear of stigma or discrimination.

Community Health

We need a system in the community to support people with diseases and disabilities along with medical treatment to cure disease. We support the transition to a health system that protects the lives of those in the community.
