Our Mission

Founded in 2017, Fox Family Foundation’s mission is to break the link between poverty and disability, primarily vision loss. We do this via grant funding, podcasting, social media, Fellowship/Micro-Internship programs, and our Innovating Inclusion program. 

 

The Impact You’ll Make

Innovating Inclusion is an entrepreneurship and career development program that empowers aspiring change-makers to build solutions with the discipline of human-centered design.

 

Our approach develops the competencies required for emerging careers that demand strong foundations in universal design, inclusion, and accessibility.

 

In creating this course, we are using Universal Design for Learning (UDL) principles, and your participation in testing the accessibility aspect of our curriculum will help us reach our goal of delivering this curriculum to everyone.

 

What You’ll Do

In this cohort, we are asking blind and low vision participants to review several modules within the Innovating Inclusion curriculum and provide feedback on representation, language used, and concepts included to ensure language is unbiased, concepts make sense, and activities are accessible and inclusive.

 

You will be asked to complete and evaluate all activities within several modules which includes a variety of presentation methods, quizzes, written reflections, and interactive activities. You will work asynchronously on the curriculum, then come together in virtual focus groups to provide your thoughts and feedback. 

 

What You’ll Bring

Users of all and any screen reader and magnification softwares are welcome, so that we can test this initiative with a broad array of tools. Your lived experience and feedback on our work are invaluable in making Innovating Inclusion a success.
