Embracing Strength: Support for Families with Limb Differences

Welcome to the Limb Difference Collective!

We are a vibrant community of families united by our experiences and determination to support our children with limb differences. Whether you just found out about your child's limb difference in your early pregnancy scans (like Ali), or you were surprised with it at birth (like Kari), or acquired one due to injury, disease, or other conditions, we are here to provide you with the information, resources, and encouragement you need.

Why Limb Difference Collective?

At the Limb Difference Collective, we believe in embracing strength and celebrating the unique abilities of every child. Our mission is to offer a space where families can find hope, share stories, and access valuable resources.

Meet the Founders:

The Limb Difference Collective was founded by two passionate mothers, Kari Treat and Ali Barnum, who were inspired by their own children. Kari's daughter, Mackenzie, and Ali's son, Tyler, have taught them the true meaning of strength and resilience. Through their experiences, they have created a community that offers hope, support, and resources to families around the world.
