Urban League of Greater Oklahoma City

Education and family development (efd): the efd programs offer an academically enriched learning environment where students from kindergarten through 6th grade can feel safe, welcomed, and comfortable to network with their peers. Our core strengths include education and professional staff who work in our afterschool program and our commitment to supporting and connecting families with the resources they need to thrive. The program is especially good at assessing our community's needs and adjusting service delivery to meet their needs effectively. The efd program incorporates the science of the hope center's model to provide support, resources, and services to improve outcomes for Oklahoma children and families.

Community convening and social justice (ccsj) hosts the largest expungement expo and records restriction initiatives in the state of Oklahoma. Ccsj is a records restriction initiative in the state that connects clients to inter-agency workforce programs, job placement programs, and housing initiatives. The program's core strengths stem from our ability to build long-term community relationships to connect our services for clients' success.

The Urban League workforce and career development (wfcd) program empowers african-americans and others in underserved communities to achieve their highest earning potential and secure economic self-reliance. Wfcd has a long successful record of disrupting poverty in Oklahoma's african american community. The wfcd career coaches understand that typically when people come to the Urban League, they struggle to meet basic needs and are often confronted with daily emotional and social challenges that create barriers to employment. The wfcd program is employment-focused and exceptionally well at providing supportive services to remove client obstacles to employment.
