What is the InSideOut Initiative?
The InSideOut Initiative (ISOI) is a national movement that empowers and equips school communities to implement purpose-based athletics by connecting student-athletes to transformational coaches in a nurturing community for their social-emotional and character development. Through the InSideOut System and the InSideOut Philosophy, schools redefine and reframe the educational value of sports as a platform to develop the human potential of students.
