A clean awareness graphic titled “White Cane Week” with the subheading “Independence in Motion,” highlighting the white cane as a symbol of mobility, safety, and independence for people who are blind or have low vision.

White Cane Week is a reminder to respect personal space, remove barriers, and design environments that support safe movement for people who are blind or have low vision.
