I can create epics on my board, but visibility is turned off. How do we turn it on?

Hi @Debra McDaniel BD and welcome to Community!

Once an epic is marked as Done, you need to follow the below steps to make it back to In progress:

* Do a JQL search of the epics to update.
* Perform a Bulk Change > Edit Issues.
* In the Change Epic Status field, select To do or In Progress.

(More details here: Re-opening a Done epic)

If you're a Jira admin, I recommend following the section Align workflow status with epic status to ensure Epic and Issue status are kept in sync.

Hope this helps,
