Welcome to the Milwaukee Urban League Young Professionals
Greetings! Urban League Family,
It is with great pleasure that I welcome you to another series of the Milwaukee Urban League Young Professionals experience!
To start, our Scholarship Fundraiser of the "Dating Game" was a huge success! I want to thank each of you for your support to the cause, and unwavering commitment to the movement. Again, Thank You.
The NUL Conference is gearing up, and we're excited to take part, because one of the confirmed Speakers is President Barack Obama.
I am looking forward to seeing you on Thursday at the General Body Meeting.

Health & Wellness Tips
- Try replacing one of your weekly strength workouts with yoga. This will add improvements in flexibility as well as relaxation, in addition to the toning and metabolic benefits of strength training.

- Get In "touch": whether you enjoy a monthly massage or a daily hug, physical contact can keep you well. Physical contact helps control levels of hormones that left unregulated can decrease immune function.
