The Urban League of Greater Chattanooga Young Professionals Association was formed to encourage the next generation of leaders to connect with one another and explore issues that impact Chattanooga and its residents. Serving professionals ages 21-40, the organization also gives young people an outlet to make a positive impact on the community and learn to work together using their diverse talents. And it's clear that, for Chattanooga, the future looks bright. Since its inception in 2009, the Young Professionals Association has connected with several organizations, volunteered at Urban League events and activities and even had lunch with the Mayor to learn how to make this a greater Chattanooga for us all.
