Willy’s World believes that the more we understand about hidden disabilities, the more we can do to help improve the lives of people living with them.

People with invisible disabilities may face discrimination and misunderstandings due to the lack of visible signs of their condition.

They may also struggle to access accommodations and support services because their needs are not always recognized.

The CDC estimates that 61 million Americans have a disability that affects major life functions, and about 10% of those are invisible disabilities.

It's important to raise awareness and promote understanding of invisible disabilities to create a more inclusive society.

Globally 1 in 6 of us live with a disability. And of those, it is estimated that up to 80% are living with a non-visible disability. That is over 1 billion people.
