RELATIONSHIPS FIRST
Here at Urban Connection we truly believe that before you can make impact someone’s life, you need to invest the time for people to know, like and trust you. You can increase the effectiveness of any social program by simply taking the time to build relationships
Welcome to Urban Connection!
Urban Connection is a 501c3 nonprofit organization that provides hope, training, and support to vulnerable and “at-risk” clients such as those experiencing homelessness, recently incarcerated and those experiencing extreme poverty.
Our Workforce Development Division offers programs that are designed to help them to launch and grow successful careers and become contributing members of our community. Each year over 25,000 of the most vulnerable clients from around the country come through Urban Connection’s “virtual” doors in an effort to make a positive change.
They are welcomed into a warm community of mutual respect and love that does not pass judgement. We believe that Career Development is the key to end the cycle of poverty and help them transition from welfare programs that create dependency.
Our team of Career Development Specialists help them re-identify who they are in the world and provide job training and mentors needed so they can move on from Urban Connection and live the life they and their family deserve.
