URGENT Inc. is a 501 (c)(3)community based organization where our mission is to empower young minds to transform their communities. We do this by promoting shared leadership through empowerment, education and engagement to create collective well-being. We choose to work with individuals and communities that are most in need of transformation because our vision is that all people have the social, educational and economic resources to thrive. We believe elders are the anchors of communities, parents are the coaches and young people are the drivers of change. Current Programs include: Rites of Passage Youth Development Program for Girls (Graded 6-12), Youth Empowerment Program After School(K-5) and Summer Camp (K-7) and Intergenerational Program for Grandparents Raising Grandchildren.
