The Empowerment Journal is the online blogging home of the Greater Sacramento Urban League. Founded in 1968, the Greater Sacramento Urban League pursues a mission to enable African Americans, other minorities and the under served to secure economic self-reliance, parity, power and civil rights. The organization carries out its mission at the local, state, and national levels through direct services, advocacy, research, policy analysis, community mobilization, collaboration and communications. GSUL is committed to being the premier social services, educational and technology training center in the Sacramento Region.
GSUL has an established history of enabling underserved communities to secure self-reliance through advocacy, services related to workforce preparation, employment, education and literacy, and economic development.
The Empowerment Journal is the latest evolution in the GSUL's effort to educate, inform and empower our community regarding the impact economic, political and public policy decisions have on us, our families and our communities. Decisions in Sacramento and Washington impact us every day, and it is important that we understand what those decisions are, how they impact us, and what we can do to help shape those outcomes.
It is our hope that you will find this blog informative, entertaining and useful. Please visit our website, http://www.gsul.org/, for more information on our programs and services - or to find out how you can become a part of the Urban League Movement.
