Invisible Illness Awareness Week

Invisible Illness Awareness Week is a dedicated time to raise understanding and recognition of illnesses that aren’t immediately visible, such as chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, or mental health conditions. Many people live with ongoing health issues that aren’t apparent to others, leading to misunderstandings or feelings of isolation. This week aims to educate the public, encourage empathy, and promote support for those affected, highlighting the importance of acknowledging unseen struggles and advocating for better awareness, services, and accommodations for individuals managing invisible illnesses.
