Winston-Salem Urban League receives Young award
The Winston-Salem Urban
League was the third place recipi
ent of the Whitney M. Young Jr.
Leadership Award in Race
Relations at the National Urban
League Conference held in
Washington, D.C., Aug. 2-9.
The award celebrates the exem
plary work of affiliates and their
CEOs in the area of race relations.
It serves as a tool to elevate the
status of race relations within the
Urban League movement. It also
helps affiliates maintain an on
going focus on race relations. As a
result of the award, the National
Urban League is able to identify
effective affiliate models for
improving race relations; create a
race relations database for use by
Leagues throughout the country;
and promote exemplary race rela
tions to the public at large.
This year the local Urban
League submitted an application
for the award using its model of
"Bridging the Gaps in Race
Relations," which has been taken
across North Carolina and has
received rave reviews for its con
tent and concepts.
As the third place winner, the
Urban League received $1,000.
The award was accepted by 'D'
Smith, president/CEO; and Victor
Johnson Jr., chairman of the
board of directors.
Bridging the Gaps in Race
Relations is a unique approach to
reducing the incidents of racism.
Its ideology is the holistic
approach to understanding
African-Americans and a mejjift
of effecting change in attitudes.
First introduced in Warren, Ohio,
by Delores J. Smith,
president/CEO of the Winston
Salem Urban League, the idea was
introduced in this community in
1989, Since that time, the series of
workshops has impacted such
providers as social service agen
cies, parents, consumers, health
and mental health personnel and
law enforcement.
More recently, the Urban
League entered into a partnership
with the North Carolina
Department of Human Resources.
Division of Mental Health,
Development Disabilities,
Substance Abuse Services, to co
sponsor these workshops in an
effort to reducing inhibitors to cul
turally competent systems of care
Monroe, in her letter of sup
port to the National Urban
League, said, "It was Mrs. Smith
who persuaded government offi
cials to understand that the needs
of ethnic minorities have increased
during the past decade, and to
acknowledge that these needs have
not developed in a vacuum or in
isolation of the larger sociopoliti
cal influences occurring in society
... who cause government to com
mit to never shutting their eyes or
turning their backs to opportuni
ties that promise to make all of us
more effective service providers."
