POP Month 2026 brought together educators, clinicians, organizations, manufacturers, and community partners to raise awareness of the prosthetic, orthotic, and pedorthic profession. From campus events and clinic open houses to webinars and digital outreach, this year’s campaign created meaningful opportunities to connect with students, professionals, and the public while showcasing the impact of POP care. Check out this year’s incredible stats.

Partners across the country helped bring POP Month to life through creative, community-focused events. Universities hosted open houses, STEM nights, and student outreach activities, while clinics and employers organized workplace celebrations, appreciation events, and local career days. Highlights included Paralympic watch parties, hands-on student activities, informational events at schools and colleges, and community open houses that introduced more people to careers in POP.

Together, these efforts made POP Month 2026 a powerful demonstration of what is possible when the profession works in concert to build awareness and inspire future engagement.
