Find out what the Urban League of Greater Madison can offer YOU this year! Join the hundreds of community members who have found jobs and started their careers through the Urban League’s FREE career services. Here is one Urban League graduate’s experience:
 
“I was out of work because of the housing crash. I had no cash. I barely had a place to live. One of my kids asked for a pair of shoes and I had no idea where I was going to get the money. The instructors and family at the Urban League gave me all of the help that I needed. I am now employed at Meriter Medical Group.”
