Programs
As a part of our mission, we have identified five empowerment areas in which we provide programming and development.
These focus areas reflect the agendas of the National Urban League and the Urban League of Metropolitan Seattle:
- Civic Engagement and Leadership Empowerment encourages all people to take an active role to improve quality of life through participation in community service projects and public policy initiatives.
- Civil Rights and Racial Justice Empowerment guarantees equal participation in all facets of American society through proactive public policies and community-based programs.
- Economic Empowerment invests in the financial literacy and employability of adults through job training, homeownership and entrepreneurship.
- Education and Youth Empowerment ensures the education of all children by providing access to early childhood literacy, after-care programs and college scholarships.
- Health and Quality of Life Empowerment promotes community wellness through a focus on prevention, including fitness, healthy eating and access to affordable health care.
