October is Blindness Awareness Month. The white cane isn’t just a tool used by travelers with vision loss. It is a symbol for members of our community who are blind or visually impaired. White Cane Safety Day is observed annually on October 15th to recognize the many achievements of blind and visually impaired citizens and the white cane as a tool promoting independent travel.

TVMS Spirit Day, in support of Blindness Awareness Month, will take place on Monday, October 15th, by wearing white - a t-shirt, a ribbon, shoes, etc.
