Building A Vision: Vision Regeneration - A Storybook

As a part of our Storytelling Initiative, DSVP has produced a "storybook" about the youth and mission of Vision Regeneration, Inc. A DSVP investment of three years, Vision's mission is unique in South Dallas focusing on changing the culture among the youth they serve to one of positive reciprocity. DSVP has worked with founder and executive director, Omar Jahwar, to move his vision from a grass-roots initiative to a national model for youth engagement and cultural transformation.

The book was created for Vision Regeneration, by Dallas Social Venture Partners . Featuring photography by local artist Sarah Jane Semrad and creative direction by Benjamin Hancock; it is a breathtaking example of how local social artists combined with community organizers can amplify the message of a mission. Each book purchased will gift back $100 to Vision Regeneration.

If you are interested in your own, you can order it directly from the manufacturer at a rate that includes the price of the book, plus a $100 contribution to Vision Regeneration.
We encourage you to support them in this way!
