Limb Loss and Limb Difference: Turning Awareness into Action
April is Limb Loss and Limb Difference Month. More than 5.6 million Americans live with limb loss or limb difference, including approximately 2.3 million individuals with limb loss and 3.4 million with congenital limb difference. Nearly 45% of those living with limb loss are age 65 or older, and a significant portion are also managing other chronic health conditions.
Disability Doesn’t Discriminate – Why Advocacy and Accessibility Matter for Everyone
A foundational aspect of advocacy is educating people about the lived experiences of people with disabilities. Currently, approximately 1 in 4 people in the United States has a disability, totaling more than 70 million people. This means about ¾ of the population may not understand or even think about how disabilities may impact their own lived experiences.
