Our Programs

The Rose Bowl Institute hosts a series of dialogues to address issues of race and sports, and to inspire Americans to learn, grow and educate one another on the importance of diversity, equity and inclusion.

We host 20-25 leaders around the DeWitt Family Rose Table within the Rose Bowl’s gorgeous Charles E. Young Locker Room. These moderated dialogues will define critical issues relating to sports values and recommend creative yet practical solutions.

The Rose Bowl Sportsmanship Initiative (ROSI) champions the value of sportsmanship in all aspects of sports, and in society more broadly. The ROSI Initiative has several aspects that include awards and contests.

The three-day annual Women’s Empowerment Symposium at the Rose Bowl Institute helps develop strong female and male leaders among high school juniors and seniors and college students.
