J 313: Commemorating the 60th Anniversary of the Urban League of Rochester
What J 313 does, verified February 12, 2025
The resolution commemorates the 60th anniversary of the Urban League of Rochester, a community organization that has been working to promote equity and opportunity for marginalized groups since 1965. The organization has helped African Americans, Latinos, and other disadvantaged communities to overcome systemic disadvantages and achieve economic freedom, better health, and quality housing. Despite its impact, the organization's work often goes unrecognized and unheralded. The resolution publicly proclaims and commends the organization for its noble aims and accomplishments, and encourages others to emulate its example. The resolution also acknowledges the generations of Rochesterians who have been part of the organization and will continue to utilize its services in the future.
