We are empowering Chicago's next generation of community leaders through the power of sport and play.
Urban Initiatives is a nonprofit organization that empowers Chicago’s youth to become agents of community change through academic success, healthy living, and leadership development. We drive systemic change by connecting stakeholders and strengthening the social fabric of the community through sport and the power of play.
We serve 15,000 Chicago Public Schools students at 50 schools throughout the city. By actively engaging participants in our extracurricular activities at a young age, Urban Initiatives empowers youth to live a healthy lifestyle, value education, and enhance their personal and social development. Urban Initiatives takes a collaborative, whole child approach to development in order to provide children with the opportunity to reach their full potential.
Health, Education, Character Development, Volunteering, and Sports-Based Youth Development
Our mission is to use the power of sport and play to empower Chicago’s youth to achieve academic success, develop social-emotional skills, and build social capital.
