Hidden Disability Symbol Canada (HDSC)

Because hidden disabilities are not readily apparent to others, there is a need for awareness, self-advocacy and representation of the Hidden Disability Community (HDC). As a symbol of Canada’s commitment to our Hidden Disability Community, a national Hidden Disability Symbol will act as both a self-advocacy tool and a social, cultural, and system transformation tool.

BIST is proud to be a part of the movement for a Hidden Disability Symbol in Canada, including in the creation of its website and helping to reach out to spread the word about this important issue.
