AboutFace is excited to see Canada illuminated in recognition and support of Craniofacial Acceptance Month!
For the month of September, monuments across the country will be lit in red, yellow, and blue to bring attention to the need for awareness and acceptance of facial differences.These will help raise awareness of facial differences and the important work that AboutFace does to provide supportive programming, advocacy, and education.
