History
Our mission since 1968 has been to help enhance education, job development and management skills for people in the Sacramento region. Over the years we have assisted thousands in achieving their social and economic goals. Many would say the Greater Sacramento Urban League is in the business of helping make Sacramento's workforce more educated and productive.
