The Urban League of Greater Chattanooga is a local affiliate of the National Urban League, a long-standing nonprofit movement focused on helping African Americans, other ethnic minorities, and disadvantaged individuals achieve economic self-reliance, parity, power, and civil rights. It is based in Chattanooga, Tennessee, and operates within a nationwide network of Urban League affiliates in more than 100 cities across 36 states and the District of Columbia. The organization pursues nonpartisan, community-based work designed to deliver services that support economic empowerment at the local level. In 2026, it announced a renewal of its partnership with Hamilton County Government, signaling ongoing local collaborations. Its program activity includes health-focused initiatives such as a free six-month diabetes prevention program launched in 2023 and the Volunteer Income Tax Assistance program that began in 2021. Together, these efforts reflect the organization’s role in addressing local needs under the broader Urban League mission.
