The advancement of empathy-based activities for students is the cornerstone of DHIFI’s mission. This entails instructing younger individuals on goal-setting, emotional intelligence, relationship-building, empathy, and prudent decision-making. We magnify SEL’s impact at DHIFI by urging learners to be proud of the things that make them unique, sustained by offerings for education that concentrate on expanding SEL’s reach, encouraging students to feel pride when it comes to their individuality, supported by initiatives that include:

  • Story sharing: By sharing their personal experiences, students achieve confidence and address the barriers that many times produce bullying.
  • Showcasing uniqueness: Our teachings reinforce that one of a kind characteristics are beneficial assets, not faults.

Championing the acceptance of one’s self and the acceptance of others, encouraging respect for various backgrounds, and ensuring a sense of belonging for everyone, no matter their uniqueness, are key parts of our mission.

Testimonials

During our 2019 annual President’s Council of Cornell Women (PCCW) Symposium, Meg gave an impressionable presentation titled “What You Think of Me is None of My Business: Embracing Your Superpower” which embodied our theme of PCCW Celebrates One Cornell: Diversity and Inclusion.” Not only was Meg’s presentation insightful, thoughtful and impactful, but she captivated the audience. Sharing stories about those who go through life with visible and invisible differences made us aware that we all face difficulties and challenges in many ways, but together, through education and awareness, we can be compassionate, loving and caring to everyone, no matter the trials and tribulations ahead.

When the U.S. Embassy in Israel hosted Meg Zucker as a Distinguished American Speaker in 2015, the audiences she spoke and met with were deeply inspired by her personal story, her effective advocacy, and the early success of Don’t Hide It, Flaunt It.  Her appearance made a huge impact with advocates for inclusion and acceptance which still resonates today with those who met her.

Daniel Shapiro

former U.S. Ambassador to Israel

Meg is an energetic and engaging speaker who inspires all who meet her with her life story of growing up with a blatant physical difference and parenting kids who share her difference.   Her message of “the things that make me different make me, me” is heartfelt and impactful and resonates with audiences of all ages and backgrounds.  Meg’s mission of building acceptance, tolerance, and empathy is more important now than ever before.  Everyone who has the pleasure of hearing Meg’s story and her vision will be better for it.
