\nNon-Profit Dedicated to Making Positive Difference for People Living with Invisible Disabilities Expands Reach with Online Forum in Advance of Annual Gala<\/i>\n<\/p>\n

NEW YORK–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Circles, the emotional support group platform<\/a>, has partnered with the Invisible Disabilities Association<\/a> (IDA), a 501(c)3 nonprofit committed to raising awareness of and supporting individuals living with invisible illness and pain.\n<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

\nCircles offers an opportunity for individuals to receive the support of peers, volunteers and professional therapists that understand their unique circumstances. By joining forces with Circles, the IDA will bolster its ability to encourage, educate, and connect people living with debilitating conditions. Currently available on the platform, the IDA Circles will meet weekly on Wednesdays at 7:00 pm EST and Thursdays at 6:00 pm EST. Led by disability experts, the participants can remain anonymous, listen, or express themselves openly, knowing their personal information will never be shared.\n<\/p>\n

\nThere are thousands of illnesses, disorders, diseases, dysfunctions, congenital disabilities, impairments, and injuries that are not always obvious to the onlooker but can limit daily activities and range from mild challenges to severe limitations. Unfortunately, because these symptoms are invisible, oftentimes misunderstandings, false perceptions, and judgments arise.\n<\/p>\n

\n\u201cHere at IDA, our goal is to be able to provide regular connecting points for people living with invisible disabilities in such a way that it helps advocate for better conversations and engages people in a friendly way to overcome seemingly big issues for accommodations,\u201d said Jess Stainbrook, Executive Director of IDA. \u201cThrough our partnership with Circles and their VOICEs platform, we can provide a place for people to connect and discuss the things going on in life, sharing hope and solutions.\u201d\n<\/p>\n

\n\u201cWe appreciate that those who are living with invisible illnesses often find themselves at a loss for readily available resources and compassionate places to turn,\u201d said Irad Eichler, co-founder and CEO of Circles. \u201cWe\u2019re honored to offer the IDA a far-reaching solution that provides a safe space for individuals who are often struggling in silence, and we hope the IDA Circles will help them to feel seen, understood, and supported wherever they are on their journey.\u201d\n<\/p>\n

\nThe partnership coincides with IDA\u2019s 15th-annual awards gala, Time to Believe, happening Saturday, October 22 at 6:00 pm ET. The virtual event is open to the public, and special Circles Voices rooms will follow to offer guests the opportunity to engage with presenters and ask questions. Guests include radio personality Denise Plante and international illusionist David Laflin. Details for the gala can be found at https:\/\/ida.rallyup.com\/2022gala\/Event\/Details<\/a>.\n<\/p>\n

\nAbout Invisible Disabilities\u00ae Association<\/b>\n<\/p>\n

\nThe Invisible Disabilities\u00ae Association (IDA) is a 501(c)3 nonprofit. IDA is about believing. We believe you! The frequently invisible nature of illness and pain may lead to disbelief about that illness or pain by those surrounding the person who lives daily with invisible disabilities. This disbelief can lead to misunderstandings, rejection by friends, family and health care providers. It may also lead to accusations of laziness or faking an illness. We are passionate about providing awareness that invisible illness, pain and disabilities are very real! Our mission is to encourage, educate and connect people and organizations touched by illness, pain and disability around the globe. Envision with us, a world where people living with illness, pain and disability will be Invisible No More\u00ae.\n<\/p>\n
