Creating a Disability Inclusive World: Conversation with Tiffany Yu, Author of The Anti-Ableist Manifesto

I hope this book can contribute to the conversation, not just about policy change, but about shifting hearts and minds, perspectives, and attitudes around disability." - Tiffany Yu, Founder & Author

What is an “invisible condition”?

An invisible condition is a non-apparent illness or health condition (physical or mental) that isn’t seen from the outside. This may include, but is not limited to chronic illness, autoimmune disorders, mental illness, neurodiverse conditions, chronic pain or fatigue, trauma, cancers, and brain injuries.

Invisible condition is inclusive of invisible illness, invisible disability, invisible disease, and non-apparent chronic illness.

Seen. Supported. Empowered.

Through the power of personal stories, let’s create a world where there is no stigma attached to invisible conditions.

Q&A with an Anonymous Advocate - ME/CFS
Tim Reitsma

“I recently read that people don’t listen to facts to form an opinion—they have an opinion and look for ways to confirm it. That applies to people who have an opinion about someone suffering from something that isn’t visible. I KNOW that people don’t understand, and if they experienced what I had, their thinking would be radically different.”
