Who We Are

The Amputee Coaltion

The Amputee Coalition is proud to be a contributing partner to the PALS online learning program. Together with our thousands of supporters, the Amputee Coalition is dedicated to ensuring that no one faces limb loss alone. We work to provide people with limb loss and limb difference, their families and caregivers the resources they need to recover, readjust and live life fully with limb loss and/or limb difference. Headquartered in Washington DC, we faciliate an extensive support group network, manage hundreds of certified peer visitors across the country, and reach thousands of people every month through our National Limb Loss Resource Center, our peer support program, and advocacy outreach. The PALS Online program is just one of the many resources we have available. To learn more about our programs and services, please visit our website.
