Invisible Disabilities Week


  • Waypoints Community Services Association 100-130 Prospect Dr Fort McMurray Canada (map)

Many challenges are hidden but have a profound impact on daily life. Invisible Disabilities Week draws attention to experiences such as chronic pain, mental health conditions, neurological disorders, and brain injuries, all challenges that often affect people who have experienced domestic, family, or sexual violence.

Waypoints offers guidance and practical support to help individuals manage these challenges safely and confidently. This includes creating plans for daily routines, accessing community resources, and developing strategies to cope with both visible and hidden impacts of abuse.

This week invites communities to notice what is often unseen, learn how invisible disabilities shape experiences, and take action to create environments that are compassionate, inclusive, and responsive to individual needs.
