Program Pillars
-
Local Meet-Ups
StreetLeader Alumni stay connected to each other & community via local quarterly meet-ups. Each meet-up focuses on a key area of support - social, emotional, spiritual, or financial.
-
Financial Aid Renewal
UrbanPromise walks alongside our alumni each year to complete the FAFSA or CA Dream Act, build credit, file taxes, and find additional scholarships and summer internships—empowering them with practical tools for financial stability and success.
-
Giving Back
Our committed Urban Legends stay engaged by pouring into the next generation—leading StreetLeader development sessions, supporting scholarship applications, and sharing their stories on panels that inspire and equip.
Summer Internships
Urban Legends and current college students have the opportunity to continue service at UPLA over the summer at Summer Camp!
Interns join a dynamic summer team that empowers youth, builds professional skills, and strengthens their call to lead and serve.
