The Urban League Twin Cities Young Professionals (ULTCYP) is a chapter of the National Urban League Young Professionals (NULYP). Our is a network of young professionals across the country who 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 of NULYP are defining, developing, implementing, and leading the next generation Civil Rights agenda.

ULTCYP is an auxiliary organization dedicated to bringing the next generation of leaders into the Urban League movement. Along with our affiliate, Urban League Twin Cities, we support the goals and mission of the National Urban League by serving our communities and developing our members through mentoring, tutoring, scholarships, economic empowerment, political engagement, and leadership development programs.
