Profile: Urban League of Greater Dallas

Urban League of Greater Dallas & North Central Texas

Our Mission:

 "To enable African Americans and others secure economic self-reliance, parity, power and civil rights."

Our programs include employment, health, housing, education, technology training, ex-offender reentry program and seniors' services. Because of the League's efforts there have been many accomplishments including the following: founded and operated the first funded Sickle Cell Anemia Program; sponsored the first job and health fairs; organized the integration of Fair Park concessions; and is currently one of two HUD certified housing counseling agencies. 

With the opening of the new facility in the heart of Oakcliff, the League's vision "to be the leading community based organization devoted to enabling all citizens to enter and enhance their position in the economic and social mainstream" is becoming a reality. It now serves as the "hub" for providing the critical academic, technical and life skills for citizens to meet the challenges of the 21st century.
