The Limb Loss Research & Statistics Program (LLR&SP)
The Limb Loss Research and Statistics Program (LLR&SP) is a collaboration of the ACA and Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health. The overall mission of the LLR&SP is to:

• Improve the understanding of limb loss — how and where it occurs and how many people are living with limb loss
• Explore people’s experiences living with limb loss
• Design programs aimed at improving function and quality of life after limb loss.
