Why Support for the Limb Difference Community Matters

Across the United States, millions of people live with limb differences. Some are born with them, while others become amputees later in life due to injury or illness. Every journey is personal, but many share common challenges that go far beyond the physical.

Access to prosthetic care, therapy, and adaptive resources is often limited or costly. Emotional support and mental health care are frequently overlooked, even though the adjustment can be life changing. Without community, these challenges can feel isolating. With support, they become manageable and empowering.

That is where Reach Beyond Your Limb-Its comes in.

We exist to create connection, advocacy, and access for the limb difference community. By bringing people together, sharing real experiences, and supporting families and individuals at every stage, we help turn uncertainty into confidence and isolation into belonging.
