VISION Academy Fellowships: Lived Experience in Focus, PhotoVoice Stories
VISION Academy Fellowship and PhotoVoice makes sports careers visible so girls and coaches can see it and be it.
PhotoVoice is the narrative engine of VISION Academy Fellowship. The project begins with PhotoVoice stories from women of color across the sports industry, building a narrative bank that makes real careers visible. Girls and early-career coaches then gain tools to pursue those careers - certifications, mentorship, network-building, career exposure, and a paid Champions Academy internship - while documenting their growth. 318 shares these stories to challenge bias and expand who is seen as a sports professional.
