Encouraging acceptance and tolerance with a inclusion program for youth groups is our mission at Don’t Hide It Flaunt It. Here DHIFI, we want to bring about a world where the individuality of each young person isn’t just recognized but also celebrated. We are dedicated to giving kids and teens the encouragement they need to celebrate their differences and feel confident. The work we do helps young people develop into confident and compassionate individuals. To achieve this goal, our offerings include a wide range of programs for schools, universities, corporate settings and communities.

Inclusion Programs

Promoting inclusion programs for educators is the cornerstone of DHIFI’s mission. This includes instructing younger individuals on emotional intelligence, goal-setting, empathy, relationship-building, and prudent decision-making. We amplify the impact of SEL at DHIFI by urging learners to celebrate their individualism, supported by offerings for education that concentrate on expanding SEL’s reach, encouraging students to feel pride when it comes to their individuality, which is reinforced by endeavors that include:

  • Story sharing: By sharing their personal experiences, students achieve confidence and address the obstacles that often produce bullying.
  • Showcasing uniqueness: Our teachings confirm that distinctive features are valuable resources, not faults.

Included in our mission, we endorse for self-acceptance and the acceptance of others, foster respect for people from a variety of backgrounds, and make certain everyone feels they belong, irrespective of their differences.

Empathy Building Activities For The Classroom

At Don’t Hide It Flaunt It, we’ve also created the Project Flaunt Hub, an interactive online platform for get to know you activities for students . By celebrating differences, promoting self-acceptance, and fostering an inclusive school environment, we aim to ensure students feel empowered. Building confidence and empathy among peers is the goal 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 resources and activities provided in this curriculum are designed to be integrated into school curricula. For schools looking to ensure every student feels valued and accepted, a understanding and supportive community can be created with the implementation of these activities. If you are interested in welcome activities for the classroom and want to learn more, visit Project Flaunt.

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.
