OUR PROGRAMS
How We're Making An Impact In The Charleston Lowcountry

National Leadership Meets Local Power
History, power, and purpose came together in Charleston.
Marc Morial, President of the National Urban League, stood shoulder to shoulder with the Charleston Area Urban League at Mother Emanuel AME and the International African American Museum.
Together, we honored our past and sparked new momentum for racial equity in the Lowcountry.
This was more than a visit—it was a call to action.
From downtown Charleston to North Charleston and the surrounding communities, CAUL is leading real change in housing, jobs, and justice. See how this historic weekend is shaping a stronger future for the Charleston region.
