Bilateral upper-extremity amputees may be eligible for
scholarships to the Skills for Life II workshop, a three-day event
hosted by Amputee Services of America, Denver, Colorado. The
October 9-12 workshop is free to all patient registrants, but
thanks in part to a donation from a fellow bilateral arm amputee,
approximately ten registrants will have their airfare and hotel
fees paid as well, with a $600-700 maximum per person. Partial
funding is also available for the airfare of patients’
assistants/caregivers, and transportation between the airport and
hotel is free.
