The Urban League Young Professionals of Middle Tennessee is one
of over 50 nationwide chapters of the National
Urban League Young Profressional.
We are headquartered in Nashville, Tennessee
and service members, clients, investors, and
employers in the Metro Service
area.
The National Urban League is the nation's
oldest and largest community-based movement
devoted to empowering African Americans to enter
the economic and social mainstream. As a national
organization, the League has performed extensive
service in the areas of employment, education,
economic development, housing and crime
prevention. Urban Leagues across the United States
serve millions of people through job assistance,
education, housing, drug treatment and prevention
programs and services.
The Urban League of Middle Tennessee was
chartered
on April 15,
1968 by a group of diverse business and community
leaders to “Carry on programs of social
service…improving the economic
welfare…”
Over the past 37 years, the Urban League of
Middle Tennessee has built a strong reputation for
connecting job seekers and employers together for
success. We embrace hard to serve
populations as well as high skilled, experienced
job seekers. Our Urban League has
found jobs for thousands and saved numerous
families from the plight of homelessness. We have
provide housing, financial literacy, and
after-school programs for youth.
We remain in a turnaround situation and are
proud to report that we are presently operating
from a position of strength.
