Discover More About Inclusion And Belonging Programs for Students

Through belonging initiatives for schools, we aim to advance mutual respect and tolerance at DHIFI. Don’t Hide It, Flaunt It (DHIFI) believes that embracing and celebrating the differences that make us unique is an act that’s extremely powerful. Our mission is promoting acceptance, understanding, mutual respect and tolerance for visible and invisible differences through engaging activities and programs.

A SEL Curriculum

At the center the work we do at DHIFI is Social Emotional Learning (SEL). Developing self-confidence, empathy, and healthy relationship skills for children and teens is the objective of our programs. We offer an array of SEL activities customized to foster an inclusive environment in communities, schools, and corporate settings. These activities encourage students to understand and appreciate their own and others’ unique traits, fostering a culture of empathy and acceptance. Get in touch with DHIFI today to find out more about a SEL program for middle schools.

SEL Activities For Students

Project Flaunt is the perfect place to get started when you are searching for social emotional activities for kids . Students are invited to form deeper connections with our ‘Get to Know You’ activities. Opportunities for sharing are generated by these activities, providing students with the opportunity to share their own experiences and discover more about the things others have experienced. This ensures a classroom that’s more supportive and inclusive. Students gain a better understanding of inclusion and develop stronger bonds between each other through these interactions. If you are interested in the potential of empathy-based activities, why not get started today?

A Belonging Curriculum For Schools

At DHIFI, a social emotional learning curriculum for schools is something we take very seriously. At DHIFI, we believe that feeling valued and respected is something everybody deserves, which is the reason we aim to create spaces that are more inclusive with the help of our inclusion programs. We deliver workshops and presentations that highlight the importance of inclusion by working with community organizations, schools, and businesses. A variety of aspects of inclusion are addressed in our programs. This includes both visible differences like physical disabilities and invisible ones like mental health issues and learning disabilities.

Bullying Prevention Curriculum

We are dedicated to providing disability acceptance curriculum for universities at DHIFI. Many have unfortunately experienced first-hand the prevalence of bullying in so many educational settings. By working to promote empathy and understanding among students with anti-bullying activities, we can make significant progress against this. Bullying behavior isn’t just capable of being recognized but also addressed with the tools and strategies we provide. This assists in creating an environment that is safer and more supportive. When the importance of respecting differences is highlighted, a sense of responsibility is developed in students that leads them to create a community that is free of bullies. Discover the benefit of emotional support program for educators by getting involved in our mission.

Empathy School Assemblies

Through dynamic school assemblies, Don’t Hide It, Flaunt It showcases social emotional learning programs by igniting empathy, self-awareness, and meaningful connection. No matter the focus – anti-bullying, disability support, or belonging – our assemblies support students in seeing themselves and their peers with greater clarity. By combining authentic storytelling, interactive conversation, and thought-provoking activities, we enable students to recognize their own identities and those around them. They extend past teaching by sparking genuine student action and encouraging long-term inclusivity in school communities. Want to bring this influential program to your students?

Get in touch as soon as possible to book an assembly that motivates students to flaunt what makes them extraordinary.

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.
