Certified Peer Visitor Program from the Amputee Coalition
The Amputee Coalition's Certified Peer Visitor (CPV) program grew out of the belief that "no one is in a better position to understand the challenges of living life with an amputation, and to support a person with limb loss, than someone who has been there."
Anyone who has had an amputation, is scheduled to have an amputation, or was born with limb loss, may request a Peer Visit at any time from one of the Amputee Coalition's CPVs. To request a visit, simply contact the Amputee Coalition via the Amputee Coalition's toll-free telephone number or the link below:
888-267-5669 / extension 7 for Amputee Coalition Peer Support
