Encouraging tolerance and acceptance with social emotional learning activities for students is what we’re all about at DHIFI. Here DHIFI, we want to bring about a world where the uniqueness of every child is not simply recognized but something that is celebrated actively. Giving children and adolescents the confidence they need to accept their unique characteristics and hold their heads high is our mission at DHIFI. Our endeavors are crucial in helping young people develop into compassionate and confident individuals. Our offerings include a wide range of programs for schools, universities, corporate settings and communities to this end.

Social Emotional Learning Program

Core to the mission at DHIFI is the promotion of SEL activities for summer camps. We strive to teach young minds the ways to process their emotions, come up with positive goals, demonstrate empathy, cultivate meaningful relationships, and make responsible decisions. At DHIFI, we broaden SEL’s scope by motivating students to embrace their unique characteristics with programs that highlight individualism.

  • Sharing narratives: Motivating students to share their stories builds their self-esteem and breaks down the societal constructs that regularly cause bullying.
  • Highlighting individuality: Our teachings confirm that one of a kind features are beneficial resources, not disadvantages.

As part of our mission, we endorse for self-acceptance and the acceptance of others, cultivate respect for people from a variety of backgrounds, and make sure everybody feels they belong, regardless of their differences.

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.
