About Us

OUR MISSION

The mission is to transform generations by promoting personal empowerment and economic self-sufficiency.

In 2019, the Urban League reached over 18,000 people through our Workforce Development Training, Youth and Financial Services, and community partnerships.

The Urban League has served the region’s underserved populations since 1948. The Urban League of Greater Southwestern Ohio is recognized as the oldest and largest community-based organization devoted to empowering African American individuals and families.
