Indigenous Visionaries
2017 – Ongoing
About The Program
The Indigenous Visionaries: Women’s Leadership Program supports the empowerment and success of Native women faculty and staff at tribal colleges and universities (TCUs) through a nine-month fellowship opportunity. Participating fellows receive place-based and experiential professional and personal development through guided trainings and cultural learning from College Fund staff and a broad network of Native women leaders. This program seeks to address and dismantle systemic barriers facing Native women by providing the tools, opportunities, and a network to support and strengthen the growth of fellows, ultimately strengthening families, TCUs, and tribal nation communities. This space will elevate and increase the visibility of Native women by offering strategic opportunities that illuminate a path towards personal, educational, and professional advancement.
