A range of SEL activities customized to foster an inclusive environment in schools, communities, and business settings can be found at DHIFI. To foster a culture of acceptance and empathy, students are encouraged to appreciate and understand the qualities that make themselves and others special with these activities.

Disability Awareness School Assemblies

Through dynamic school assemblies, Don’t Hide It, Flaunt It delivers social-emotional learning programs by cultivating emotional intelligence, reflection, and meaningful connection. Each assembly, whether rooted in bullying prevention, disability support, or inclusion, encourages students to acknowledge both their own worth and the individuality in others. By blending personal narrative, student discussion, and guided self-reflection, we empower students to value their own identities and those in their community. These assemblies aren’t just about understanding – they’re about inspiring action and building long-term impact within schools. Planning to deliver this kind of inclusive experience to your school community?

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.
