Successful outcomes require education and involvement in decision making by the persons affected most closely by the amputation, the amputee. Studies show that positive adaptation is enhanced with access to resources such as peer counseling information and knowledge regarding options in care. Amputees involved in independent activities, including therapeutic/recreational programs, are more successfully rehabilitated and resume active, healthy and productive lives sooner than those without the benefit of such support and information.

The purpose of the ACA annual conference is to bring amputees, their peers, health care and other industry professionals together in one arena so they may interface, share expertise, keep abreast of new technologies, products and services, and find solutions to common problems.
