Amputee Coalition of British Columbia

End the Pain Project and Free Toolkit

Phantom limb pain occurs for at least 90% of limb amputees and can be excruciating, interfering with all aspects of life. Following amputation, the amputee may continue to feel sensations from the missing limb. This suggests limb perceptions may be hard wired in the brain, contributing to sensations of pain that last long after limb loss.

The Amputee Coalition of Canada

The Amputee Coalition of Canada (ACC), established in 2008, is a charitable, non-profit organisation, which is currently in a developmental phase. Our mission is to unite and lend support to individuals who have experienced limb loss by offering a structured peer visitor program, as well as by providing resources and educational materials to assist in their social reintegration

Ultimate Wheelchair Sports Foundation

We are a non-profit organization, based out of Calgary Alberta Canada, that provides a variety of recreational and competitive sport opportunities to wheelchair athletes, coaches and volunteers. Our mission is to facilitate sport opportunities from the developmental to the elite level of participation, in the areas of athletic competition, technical development, leadership, and integration.
