National Limb Loss Information Center
Topic of the Month
The NLLIC has expanded its list of publications by adding the NLLIC Topic of the Month web-based resource list. The purpose of the resource list is to highlight available materials on the ACA web site's online library, an invaluable resource for amputees, medical professionals, and others with limb loss that are seeking specific information. If you would like to receive this list via email, contact Molly Moore at library@amputee-coalition.org.

Most of the topics for the resource list are chosen in accordance to popular requests coming through the ACA's web site or from popular articles relating to its most recent inMotion or FirstStep magazines. The publication also seeks out any relevant news updates, industry or regulation changes, and any other 'hot topics' concerning amputees and limb loss. We want to do everything we can to keep those with limb loss up to date on current and important issues.
