Sometimes, the biggest changes don’t happen in a lab—they happen with a few carefully chosen words.
In this episode of the We’re Not Stumped podcast, I want to personally thank the LN-4 Hand Project (https://ln4handproject.org/) for updating its mission statement to better reflect the entire upper limb limb loss community.
For many years, organizations have understandably focused on a specific group of individuals. But recognizing and including everyone living with upper limb loss and limb difference sends a powerful message: you belong, your story matters, and you are seen.
As someone born without a right hand, this change means a great deal to me personally, and I believe it represents an important step toward greater inclusion across our community.
Thank you to the LN-4 Hand Project for listening, evolving, and continuing to make a positive impact.
If this message resonates with you, please like, subscribe, and share this episode to help spread the word.
