YPN About Us

The Urban League of Broward County Young Professionals Network is one of over 100 chapters affiliated with the National Urban League Young Professionals (NULYP).  

NULYP was designed to 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 are defining, developing, implementing, and leading the next generation civil rights agenda.

The Young Professional Network in Broward County was established on February 1, 2007.  Our mission is to cultivate a new generation of young professionals to take an active role in serving and empowering Broward County’s urban communities.  We strive to be the training ground for young leaders and to promote the Urban League as an authority on issues affecting Broward County’s urban communities.

We actively support the goals and mission of the Urban League of Broward County by serving our community and developing our members through mentoring and youth activities, political engagement, and professional development programs. Our chapter implements local programs in support of the National Urban League’s 5-point empowerment agenda, which include:
