Urban Affairs Coalition (UAC): Difference between revisions

Latest revision as of 18:10, 9 April 2026

A Home For Nonprofits Since 1969

The Urban Affairs Coalition unites government, business, neighborhoods, and individual initiative to improve the quality of life in the region, build wealth in urban communities, and solve emerging issues.

We are home to 80+ organizations who work on issues that affect communities. We strengthen nonprofits through fiscal sponsorship, shared services, program development, and capacity building. Together, we create futures for youth and improve life for young-adults. Together, we improve opportunities for low-income households, working-families, and community businesses.

The problems we face are far too complex for one entity to solve on its own. By leveraging fiduciary, human resource, and legal stewardship, our business model provides stability and continuity to our nonprofits partners. The Power of Coalition means that, together, we can do what no one organization can do alone.
