This event is the start of an awareness campaign about Invisible Disabilities based on the Sunflower Lanyard. Students with invisible disabilities can take a Sunflower Lanyard (as long as supplies lasts) and we will have Posters for organizations to post in their spaces; having the poster will signal to Lanyard wearers that you will honor their needs.
