The Orthotic and Prosthetic Assistance Fund, OPAF, http://www.opfund.org,
offers the following information in cooperation with the American
Association on Health and Disability, AAHD, http://www.aahd.us/, as a public
service announcement, PSA, that helps to fulfill OPAF’s official
representation of the fields of orthotics and prosthetics in community and
philanthropic circles.
************************
In 2005, OPAF PSAs and overall operations are made possible thanks in part
to the generosity of OPAF’s top current supporters, including the American
Board for Certification in Orthotics and Prosthetics, ABC,
http://www.abcop.org/; Morrison & Foerster LLP http://www.mofo.com/; and
Ohio Willow Wood http://www.owwco.com/.
Thanks to all for their commitment to OPAF’s chief mission: enable
individuals with physical disabilities — especially those served by members
of the U.S. O&P community — to enjoy the rewards of personal achievement,
physical fitness, and social interaction.
Every PSA helps to build a bridge between OPAF, and therefore the O&P
community, and individuals and organizations concerned with the past,
present, and/or future of orthotics and prosthetics. Alongside OPAF’s other
service programs, OPAF PSAs help to advance the abovestated mission while
promoting, enhancing, and protecting the reputation of O&P in the public
eye.
