For over 90 years, they have been helping disadvantaged New Yorkers find humanity in the big city, find ways to connect and help each other, and together gain access to equal opportunity in employment, education, financial and technological literacy, and more. The New York Urban League, Inc. (the “League”) is one of the local affiliates of the National Urban League.

What they do:

Empowering their community, from first day of school to first day on the job and beyond.

Education

They’ve been helping kids achieve their dreams for 90 years. You could be next.

The New York Urban League assists students and their families in developing a blueprint for academic success. Through their comprehensive programs, they are working to increase the number of students that get to, and through, college.

Employment & Career Services

The League is devoted to removing the obstacles between you and the future you deserve.

NYUL’s employment services are tailored to meet the individual needs of those they serve, including career-readiness workshops, talent matching, training programs referrals, and access to exclusive workshops and events.

Technology & Learning Centers

Everyone in their community, no matter what age, deserves to be fluent in technology. Including you.

The New York Urban League Technology Learning Center is not simply a technology lab, but an avenue for community members to improve their technology skills through guided support.

Vision

To provide opportunities for members of all communities in their city to have access to education, employment, and a living environment that fosters mutual respect.

Mission

The mission of the New York Urban League (NYUL) is to enable African Americans and other underserved ethnic communities to secure a first-class education, economic self-reliance, and equal respect of their civil rights through programs, services, and advocacy in their highly diversified city.
