FOR AMPUTEES AND THEIR FAMILIES
You don’t have to figure this out alone
Steel Bones connects amputees, families, and professionals with free peer support, practical advice, and a community that gets it. Built by amputees, for amputees.
We understand that every amputee’s journey is unique, shaped by factors such as the nature of their disability, the circumstances of their amputation, age, personal needs, and coping mechanisms.
Our mission is to empower amputees and their families to live life to the fullest. We do this by providing direct support and working alongside trusted partners to ensure you receive the care and assistance you need.
