I just got back from my first business trip in five years and got to use the Hidden Disabilities Sunflower Program at #YVR in Vancouver.
This program makes it easier for people with all kinds of invisible illnesses to travel, and I think more people need to know about it.
280+ airports have joined the program: https://davidarcher.net/blog/til-280-airports-have-joined-the-hidden-disabilities-sunflower-program
@AlliFlowers @slcw It's rough out there, for sure.
Their website lets you search and see if the Sunflower program is near you. There are quite a few US airports listed as participating. But I couldn't tell you what the experience on the ground is like. 🤷♂️ https://hdsunflower.com/us/find-the-sunflower/
@AlliFlowers @darcher In the US, ridiculing, harassing, belittling, and actively looking for ways to hurt the disabled is en vogue.
