After more than 100 years of service, the Chicago Urban League is a well-known entity in many circles, but it is not uncommon for Black Chicagoans to have little knowledge of the actual work of the organization.

The Urban League of Nebraska (ULN) administers programs in education and youth development, offering supplemental and enrichment opportunities for high school students.  One of our signature programs is the Whitney M. Young Jr. Leadership Academy, a college preparatory program.
