Lake Street Works, a nonprofit startup that introduces high school seniors to careers in the trades, is excited to announce its new chapter as a program of Urban Ventures

Merry Christmas from Urban Ventures

Reading Plus and friends turned our very own Hub space into a salon. We hosted current and former Reading Plus middle schoolers, inviting them to come book shopping while getting a new look from one of our talented stylists. 

New research is confirming what we have already experienced in our neighborhood: we are in an educational crisis. 

Looking for ways to support Urban Ventures in addition to donating? You’re in luck. There are a lot of year-end options that offer a good time, and a good way to invest in our city.

Channel 5 Eyewitness News featured the staff of Urban Ventures Athletics and Wellness.

Take a spin around our campus to see all the program Urban Ventures offers in our cradle-to-career model. This video was featured as a part of our 30th Anniversary Celebration.
