UNPACKING THE THEME

You Matter.
Your Story Matters.

This year’s theme, we challenge YOU to define ‘Home.’ How can we bring our different stories together to build our collective story; our Home? A home where our stories are protected, honored, and shared without fear.

At AFP’s MyStory Day 2025, we have the opportunity to achieve Anne Frank’s wish to “repair the world” by deconstructing and rebuilding what we call Home.
