Houston Area Urban League: Empowering Communities and Changing Lives for 50 Years
President John F. Kennedy once said a rising tide lifts all boats to emphasize the ideal that we all can benefit from economic development. However, as President and CEO of the Houston Area Urban League, I have learned that while we may all be on this ship together, we are not all afforded the same access to opportunity. We must work hard and be ever-vigilant in closing this gap so that all communities can thrive. When we help marginalized families own homes, provide workforce training that leads to livable wages, support literacy reading circles for disadvantaged youths and embrace entrepreneurial opportunities for small business owners, then and only then do we fulfill our national promise of shared prosperity – and lift all boats.
