A WORLD OF POSSIBLE.
Empowering Over 4,800 Members in Israel’s Limb-Loss Community
As the sole organization in Israel dedicated exclusively to the comprehensive care of Israeli amputees and their families, The Next Step delivers services that transform challenges into opportunities.
Every program and service we provide is a direct result of generous people—like you—who believe in creating a more confident, mobile future for all.

OUR 6 PILLARS

Physical Achievement
Push Limits, Gain Freedom
Physical activity is a gateway to functional independence and personal growth. Through adaptive sports teams—including running, cycling, climbing, swimming, rowing, cross-fit, surfing, and more—we help amputees unlock new levels of confidence and discover just how far they can go, both physically and mentally.

Prosthetic Fittings
Turning “I Can’t” Into “I Can.”
Staying on the cutting edge of prosthetic technology is vital to restoring independence. Our programs connect amputees with top-of-the-line solutions, including international fitting opportunities (travel, lodging, and follow-up care), home fitting assistance, and parent/child support groups. We also collaborate with global partners to collect floor models and fabricate them in Israel, ensuring amputees have access to the very best.

Support & Respite
Healing Mind & Spirit.
Limb loss affects more than just the body—it reshapes entire lives. Our support and respite services offer hospital visits before and after amputation, care packages for new amputees, and safe spaces for sharing personal journeys. By connecting people who’ve walked similar paths, we create a supportive community that fosters emotional well-being.

Limb-Loss Education
Knowledge Is Power.
Our education initiatives range from a limb-loss resource guide and bi-monthly publications to amputee conferences and expos. By providing up-to-date information on procedures, prosthetics, and everyday living, we equip amputees and their families with the understanding they need to tackle goals and achieve independence.

Awareness & Inclusivity
Changing Perspectives,
Opening Doors.
We believe limb loss should never limit someone’s potential. Through public appearances, educational campaigns, and collaborations with media outlets, we’re increasing visibility for amputees across Israel. By tackling stigma head-on, we pave the way for inclusivity in workplaces, public spaces, and
beyond.

Advocacy & Lobbying
Championing Amputees’s Rights.
Navigating bureaucracy can be a daunting roadblock. Our advocacy efforts focus on lobbying for legislation, expediting approvals for services, and ensuring amputees receive the resources they need to thrive. In continuously challenging outdated systems, we’re forging a more equitable society for everyone.
NEW INITIATIVE!

THE RUNNING RESIDENCY PROGRAM
From Walking to Racing—Pushing the Boundaries of What’s Possible
This cutting-edge initiative takes amputees beyond basic mobility, offering specialized training, advanced running prosthetics, and structured coaching. Selected participants immerse in an intensive residency, culminating in a 10K run or athletic event. The Running Residency not only boosts physical strength but also ignites self-confidence, proving that once “impossible” goals can become reality.

What’s Next:
The Empowerment Center
Uniting Our Services Under One Roof

In response to the growing demand for our programs, The Next Step is building the Empowerment Center—Israel’s primary hub for amputee rehabilitation, mentorship, and community support.
Here, limb-loss education, fitness programs, prosthetic services, and advocacy efforts will come together under one roof, guaranteeing streamlined and holistic care for all. It’s our boldest step yet, ensuring that no one in Israel’s limb-loss community stands alone.
