About Us
Hidden Truths Project is dedicated to engage and empower individuals impacted by invisible and visible disabilities through the arts with a focus in epilepsy.
Our 1:26 The Art of Epilepsy exhibits, Mindful-based Art Workshops, and If not us, then who? film series provide the catalyst to facilitate a dialogue based on lived experiences and to dismantle the stigmatization directed against these individuals.
Our Mission
Hidden Truths Project's mission is to raise awareness about the pervasiveness of the hidden disability of epilepsy, and to improve the quality of life and well-being for these individuals, their families, and caregivers.
Core Values
We hold these Core Values as indispensable in order to be true advocates for the diverse communities that we serve.
INCLUSIVE
It is our intention to cultivate an environment of inclusivity for all members of society, regardless of race, ethnicity, age, ability, health condition, sexual orientation, gender identity, socio-economic status, citizenship, or religion.
Courageous
Candidly and without censorship, we encourage individuals who have been silenced to “speak up”, to help raise awareness about the pervasiveness and effects of epilepsy and other life challenges.
Collaborative
Working collectively, we foster an art-inspired narrative that reflects the diversity of the communities we serve and to provide a voice for those who have been marginalized.
EMPATHY
Collaborating with individuals across a diverse population is only effective if we attempt to understand each other’s views and their basis, thereby paving the way for constructive transformation and an environment based on equity.
EMBOLDEN
HTP’s goal is to inspire others to think, join in the conversation, and become engaged partners of change.
