Mission Statement
We are unapologetic and relentless advocates for equity, justice and power for African descendants.
Description
For more than 90 years, Minnesotans have looked to the Minneapolis Urban League as a source of strength in the community. From employment to education to engagement, the Minneapolis Urban Leagues seeks to help African descendants strive for and achieve economic empowerment and self-sufficiency to build wealth that can be passed down from generation to generation.
We envision a future in which African descendants can be fully engaged, empowered and invested in the success and well-being of the Twin Cities metro area. The Minneapolis Urban League understands that the cultural heritage and assets of people of African descent are a rich resource of creativity, power and beauty.
We believe that a strong and systemic change is needed to transform our communities. The Minneapolis Urban League plays a vital role as advocate and thought leader for issues affecting African descendants in the Twin Cities.
