Program Director

About our 4 Programs:

1. HELP: (Handicap Education, Learning & Peer Support): Knowledge, community and opportunities are vital for people to thrive in challenging circumstances. Our H.E.L.P.S. program supports the areas of peer support, sponsorships and social activities.

2. HOPE (Holistic Optimization and the Pursuit of Equity): There are many things that improve amputees’ quality of life, however, most are outside of what insurance provides and are resultantly not affordable for most amputees. We believe everyone deserves the opportunity to have access to products and professionals that can help them. Our H.O.P.E. program supports the provision of care packages, holistic goods & services.

3. HEARTS (Help Every Amputee Realize Their Strength): Physical activity is vital for the health of our bodies and minds. Unfortunately, most amputees cannot afford the specialty prosthetics required to move more freely, fitness trainer fees, gym dues, or home equipment costs. Our H.E.A.R.T.S. program provides amputees with prosthetic running blades, gym memberships, customized adaptive fitness training and fitness equipment.

4. HOME (Home Outfitting, Modification & Enhancement): Limb loss presents many additional challenges within the home, especially during the acute medical recovery period. Our H.O.M.E. program provides amputees with funding for home services and accessibility renovations.
