Learn About The Power of Belonging Activities

Our goal at Don’t Hide It Flaunt It is to foster tolerance and acceptance through a SEL curriculum for educators. Here DHIFI, we dream of a world where the individuality of each young person is not simply recognized but something that is celebrated actively. Giving adolescents and children the confidence they need to accept their unique characteristics and hold their heads high is our mission at DHIFI. Helping young people develop into confident and compassionate individuals is the focus of the work we do. To achieve this goal, our offerings include a wide range of programs for schools, universities, communities, and corporate settings.

An Inclusion Curriculum

Central to DHIFI’s mission is the advancement of inclusion programs for educators. This includes giving younger individuals instruction regarding goal-setting, emotional intelligence, relationship-building, empathy, and wise decision-making. We amplify the impact of SEL at DHIFI by urging learners to celebrate the things that make them unique, supported by educational offerings that concentrate on expanding SEL’s reach, encouraging students to take pride in their uniqueness, supported by initiatives that include:

  • Sharing narratives: Encouraging individuals to tell their stories builds their self-esteem and breaks down the societal constructs that regularly cause bullying.
  • Accentuating individuality: We educate students that their different characteristics are merits rather than inadequacies.

Championing the acceptance of one’s self and the acceptance of others, fostering respect for various backgrounds, and guaranteeing a sense of belonging for everyone, regardless of their uniqueness, are integral parts of our mission.

Empathy-Based Activities For Middle School

At Don’t Hide It Flaunt It, we’ve additionally created the Project Flaunt Hub, an online interactive platform for acceptance activity ideas kids . We believe students can be empowered and learn to accept themselves by fostering more inclusive environments and celebrating our differences. By encouraging students to flaunt their unique qualities and experiences, the initiative seeks to build empathy and confidence among peers. Various resources and activities designed for integration into school curricula, emphasizing social-emotional learning (SEL) and inclusion are provided by this program. Schools can implement these activities to create a understanding and supportive community where every student feels accepted and valued.

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.
