In today’s global world we are more connected than ever before...and yet, paradoxically, many of us often feel more alone, alienated, different, and less-than. FTL's "Belonging Project" looks at everyday situations, circumstances, interactions, and emotions that affect our sense of belonging. We ask people to share an experience that defines what belonging means to them.

The “Belonging Project" inspires us to ask 3 simple questions:
1) How do you define belonging?
2) Can you describe a time when you felt like you belonged?
3) Can you describe a time when you felt like you really didn’t belong?
