Discover The Benefits of Inclusion Programs

Promoting disability acceptance workshop for high schools to foster acceptance and tolerance is our mission at DHIFI. Each child’s uniqueness is something that should be celebrated, and this is something we believe in strongly at DHIFI. Giving children and adolescents the confidence they need to accept their unique characteristics and hold their heads high is our mission at DHIFI. Helping young people grow into compassionate and confident individuals is the focus of the work we do. We provide a inclusion of programs for schools, universities, corporate settings and communities to this end.

A Belonging Curriculum

At the heart of DHIFI is our commitment to inclusivity workshops for educators. We concentrate on developing the youth’s capacity for emotional understanding, establishing positive goals, cultivating empathic interactions, building relationships, and executing choices. We amplify the impact of SEL at DHIFI by urging learners to celebrate their individualism, supported by educational offerings that concentrate on increasing the reach of SEL, inspiring students to feel pride when it comes to their individuality, supported by endeavors that include:

  • Story sharing: By sharing the experiences they’ve had with others, students gain confidence and tackle the obstacles that many times lead to bullying.
  • Emphasizing uniqueness: We teach that differences are strengths to be valued, not deficits.

Included in our mission, we endorse for self-acceptance and the acceptance of others, cultivate respect for people from various backgrounds, and make sure everyone feels they belong, no matter their differences.

SEL Activities For Kids

At Don’t Hide It Flaunt It, we have also created the Project Flaunt Hub, an interactive online platform for acceptance activities for elementary school . We believe students are capable of being empowered and learn self acceptance by fostering more inclusive environments and celebrating our differences. Building empathy and confidence among peers is the objective of this initiative, which is capable of being achieved by encouraging students to flaunt their unique qualities and experiences. With inclusion and social-emotional learning (SEL) being strongly emphasized, the various activities and resources provided in this curriculum are designed for integration into school curricula. For schools looking to ensure every student feels valued and accepted, a supportive and understanding community can be created with the implementation of these activities.

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.
