Our programs
Computer Literacy
The ULS Digital Learning Lab serves as a vital resource for training and supporting individuals of all ages within our community, equipping them with essential technology skills and access. Many of our constituents lack computer ownership and financial resources for software, often experiencing significant pressures and feelings of helplessness. Annually, an estimated 150 youth, seniors, and adults benefit from the lab.
Project Ready
Project Ready is a program founded by the National Urban League in 2008. It is designed to prepare African-Americans and other historically underserved youth, grades 8 -12, for college and careers. The program provides youth with a spectrum of supports, services, and opportunities not always found in the classroom.
Foster Grandparents
Foster Grandparents is a nationwide volunteer program. Every day in communities across America the Foster Grandparents are the people children in need depend on for love, wisdom, and support.
