We are a social & business networking organization with our headquarters in New Haven, CT.   Our goal is to assist in economic empowerment, career advancement, and networking to urban professionals residing in Connecticut.  Furthermore, we would like to be a resource for new Connecticut residents who have moved here because of school, job transfers, hardships, and etc.  Our members are essentially like an extended family who supports each other through the individual networks we all have.  Through the network, we will also facilitate business leads and referrals to new and established business owners. 

The UPN will also have a presence in our inner cities by offering activities, programs, and support for the "at risk" youth and adults.  We are here to make a difference in Connecticut so that the future generations have a legitimate chance to pursue their dreams.  Our presence in the community will truly be one of the shining lights in Connecticut that make a difference.  We are currently looking to add new members to our diverse roster.  There is no race, gender, age, background or any other type of discrimination. There are still open positions on the executive board and in other areas.  If you want to improve or offer your skill set by working with us, don't hesitate to contact us.  We cater to all interest.
