White Cane Day 2025 at the Minnesota State Capitol was a celebration of pride, freedom, and possibility. Leaders, students, families, and blind, low vision, and deafblind Minnesotans gathered to affirm a simple truth: the white cane is not just a mobility tool — it is dignity, safety, and independence. Speakers honored the history of White Cane Safety Day, first recognized nationally in 1964, and reminded Minnesota that accessibility is a responsibility we all share. Youth and adults stood side by side to read the Governor’s proclamation declaring October 15, 2025 White Cane Safety Awareness Day in Minnesota, lifting up the right of every person to travel, work, learn, and live fully. Again and again the message was clear: this community is strong, joyful, and on the move. The white cane is confidence. It is opportunity. It is the key to adventure, employment, and everyday life — and it belongs in every space Minnesotans belong.
