Empowering Communities.

Changing Lives.

Welcome to Your Houston Area Urban League

Since 1968, we have remained steadfast in our mission to advocate for those who have been overlooked, dismissed, and marginalized throughout our nation’s history. Our organization stands as a beacon of empowerment for everyday individuals — those working to build stronger communities through entrepreneurship, pursuing education to create new opportunities, securing stable housing for their families, developing the skills needed to succeed in today’s workforce, speaking out against injustice, and striving to improve their overall well-being through better health and personal growth.

We equip everyone who walks through our doors with the tools to achieve stability, independence, and a better quality of life.
