A knowledge, attitude and practice (KAP) study of the family welfare programme was conducted in lahaul & spiti, a tribal district of himachal pradesh. The awareness, attitude and acceptance of the programme was 80.52%, 76.19% and 46.32% respectively. Awareness and acceptance were significantly proportional to socio-economic status. The role of education, motivation and effective communication based on local culture was stressed in this study.
