The Urban League of Morris County has served as a cornerstone of opportunity in New Jersey for more than 60 years. We advance economic self-reliance, parity, and power for underserved communities through direct service, advocacy, and a growing portfolio of workforce and education programs.
Today, as artificial intelligence and technology reshape the economy, ULMC is building the infrastructure that helps our community retrain, reskill, upskill—and thrive. We are not abandoning our roots. We are growing them deeper, into the soil of the future of work.
For over 60 years, ULMC operated as a vital safety net—protecting families from foreclosure, placing workers in jobs, and opening doors to education. That work remains essential.
But the future demands more. The ASCEND strategy transforms ULMC into a self-sustaining social enterprise—a launchpad for the middle class of tomorrow.
Three Centers of Excellence. A revenue-generating certification model. A permanent endowment. A CEO who is living proof of what ULMC can do when it's given the resources to work.

"My journey with the Urban League of Morris County did not begin in the boardroom. It began in a classroom."
"I benefited from the very programs designed to open doors and expand opportunity—a full-circle journey that brings me back today as President & CEO. I return home not just as an executive, but as living proof of our mission."
"We stand at an inflection point. The challenges of a volatile job market and the rising digital divide require a new Urban League that is as agile as it is compassionate. We are committing to a hybrid service model that meets young professionals where they are—online and in the cloud—while maintaining the vital, human touch for our families and seniors."
"I am asking you to invest not merely in an organization, but in the infrastructure of opportunity."

"ULMC stands at an inflection point—not because our mission has changed, but because our responsibility has grown. As Trustees, we are committed to stewardship, discipline, and long-term sustainability.
We invite you to join us in this next chapter—to help build an institution capable of delivering economic justice for generations to come."
The Board of Trustees is committed to fiscal discipline, phased staffing, and a capital strategy that ensures every investment goes directly to people—not overhead.
