National Urban League Young Professionals
(NULYP) is a network of young professionals across
the country who provide leadership development, economic
empowerment and community volunteer opportunities for other
young professionals. The organization trains, develops,
and educates young professionals to take leadership roles
within the National Urban League, the civil rights movement,
and society-at-large. Members of NULYP are defining, developing,
implementing, and leading the next generation civil rights
agenda.
NULYP's mission is to engage young professionals
in the National Urban League's movement towards the achievement
of social and economic equality. NULYP does this by providing
an effective forum through which young professionals can
support the Urban League's more than 100 affiliates in 35
states and the District of Columbia.
We support the goals and mission of the National
Urban League by serving our communities and developing our
members through mentoring, tutoring, scholarships, economic
empowerment, political engagement, and leadership development
programs. Our chapters implement local programs in support
of the National Urban League empowerment agenda, which include:
NULYP also works to strengthen our members
by encouraging them to achieve balance in their lives even
as they work to strengthen their communities. To this end,
NULYP strives to develop programs that encourage individual
members' personal and professional development.
