The Urban League of Greater San Francisco Bay Area, led by President Kenneth E. Maxey II, operates throughout the nine Bay Area counties to ensure that African Americans have access to a better future. Their programs range from job fairs and mentoring, leadership and technology training for youth, government leadership fellowships, uniting Bay Area communities to combat hate, celebrating community leaders, to ensuring the communities they serve have access to financial and health wellness.
