Indianapolis Urban League

For my paper I chose to write about an organization called the Indianapolis Urban League. The Indianapolis Urban League was established in order to help African Americans, other minorities and disadvantaged individuals to learn how to achieve economic and social self sufficiency. With should help this organization because they want to educate the young and the elder people that fall under these groups so that they can learn how to support their families and themselves better then they are currently doing. Educating the people then causes them to build a stronger community and getting rid of the negative environment in which they live. Educating the young shows them how to be able to support themselves in the future and be able to brace themselves for the real world once they are older. In a way these ideas of the IUL doesn't really relate to my life because i don't live in a poor community but the fact of them educating the young of how to be able to support themselves in the future should be for any child no matter how wealthy or poor.
