Leadership Team
The Greater Sacramento Urban League Young Professionals is governed by a Leadership Council, comprised of a five-member Executive Committee including a President, Vice President, Secretary, Treasurer and Parliamentarian. This Executive Committee is responsible for managing the direction of the organization and routinely appoints committee chairs to lead each of the standing committees. Committee chairs are responsible for holding regular committee meetings, conveying information to the general body, setting committee budgets, and assist in guiding GSULYP towards our empowerment agenda and organizational goals.
