📢 April is Limb Loss and Limb Difference Awareness Month (LLLDAM) — a time to celebrate resilience, share experiences, and raise awareness for the 5.6 million people across the U.S. who have limb loss or limb difference.
We're excited to spotlight The Power of Sports for Amputees. This award-winning short documentary follows the journeys of three people living with limb loss as they reclaim identity, confidence, and purpose through adaptive sports. New at Journeys in Film!
Our Bell Ringer / Mini Discussion Guide explores the framing of ability and disability, the healing power of sports, obstacles and access in adaptive sports, and inclusion and belonging in the workplace. It’s great for community building and inclusion! For grades 7-12, adult/higher ed.
