Amputee Coalition of British Columbia - Org

The Amputee Coalition of British Columbia is an non-profit society. ACBC's purposes include: to act as a consumer advocacy group; to empower amputees with the information and tools necessary to assist in a variety of aspects of amputee life; to provide peer support and visits; to work with other like minded organizations; to take an active part in prosthetic research & development; to take an active role in creating positive change for all persons with disabilities in British Columbia.

Welcome to the Amputee Coalition of BC blog!

Empowerment is the first step!

We at the Amputee Coalition of British Columbia realize that an amputation, for whatever reason, is a serious event. You, and those who care, will undoubtedly have concerns and questions. ACBC members know what you are going through and can help.

Your life has changed (or is about to change), but with the information, support and education that the ACBC has available, you will be empowered to take on your new challenges with the appropriate tools.

We invite you to contact us regarding any questions and issues you might have, schedule a Peer Visit from a trained Peer Visitor, understand your rights and responsibilities and join the ACBC to help improve the lives of amputees and more!

Remember, although you may be experiencing a different world, that doesn't mean that there has to be a world of difference.
