Why the sunflower?

A Symbol of Invisible Disability Awareness

The sunflower reminds us that not all challenges are visible — and every family deserves to be seen, clearly, with compassion, and without judgment.

If the Sunflower Guide has helped your family, help us reach the families we don't know how to find.
