About the Group
Our virtual support group is a welcoming, judgment-free space to connect with others who understand the physical, emotional, and everyday realities of limb loss.
Each session includes casual introductions, a guided discussion topic, peer support, resource sharing, and open conversation. You are welcome to share, listen, ask questions, or simply be present.
This group is designed so you can join at any time. You do not need to attend previous sessions or complete a curriculum to participate.
