Join Our Young Professional Board

Interested in doing more for your community & learning more about philanthropy? Want to fuel social change? Our Young Professional Board (YPB) meets monthly, and is a group of passionate individuals that enable us to provide life-saving services to some of New York City’s most vulnerable and exploited populations by shaping UJC from the inside. It’s also a fun way to network, and meet other New York City residents who care about social justice. Join our community of changemakers!

If you want to learn more or be considered as as a candidate for our YPB – fill out this form! If you are looking for a more casual way to stay involved with our work, please consider signing up for our Justice Initiators (JI). The JI meet the third week every month for exclusive, behind-the-scenes chats with our social justice leaders. Justice Initiators are given special consideration for our YPB based on their expressed commitment to and interest in the UJC.
