Support Missouri Amputees Now!

Financial contributions to the MCPLL are not tax deductible since the money goes toward lobbying.

About MCPLL

The Missouri Coalition for People with Limb Loss was formed in 2007 to address disparity in insurance coverage for prosthetics. We are currently working to get prosthetic parity legislation passed in Missouri in 2009.

We are led by working amputees who have been hurt by insurance caps on prosthetics: Jeff Damerall, Chair; Jean Freeman, Vice-Chair and Secretary, Jim Weber, Treasurer; Debbie Wilson, Hospitality Chair; and Bill McLellan, Fundraising Chair.

You may contact us or send donations to:

Jeff Damerall, Coalition Chair
Missouri Coalition for People with Limb Loss (MCPLL)
