We catalyze new visual narratives and leverage them to change national conversations about social policy.
Our work has been lauded by The New York Times, TIME, NPR, BuzzFeed, Politico, Slate, and other leading news channels.
Our programming has served thousands, earned participants thousands of dollars in stipends, and launched careers. The wait list has numbered 500+.
Supporters of our projects include the late president Jimmy Carter, Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor, and US Senator Kirsten Gillibrand.
Our three PBS films have won scores of awards the world over, catalyzing reforms here and abroad.
Our first book garnered multiple awards and placed as a finalist twice. Our second book also placed as an award finalist.
Our work has attracted fans across the political spectrum. We believe this is the most promising path to reform.
An NYC Retrospective Gallery Exhibit 2026
A nonpartisan nonprofit, Seeing for Ourselves equips and trains marginalized individuals to take control of their own public narrative by documenting their lives photographically.
​
The practice is known as "participatory photography."
We help amplify this new narrative in gallery exhibits, books, film, and social media—a new form of storytelling.
