Biographical History

The Atlanta Urban League, an affiliate of the National Urban League, was established in 1920. It is a private, non-profit, interracial community service organization which functions as a vehicle for addressing the social and economic problems of the black community in Atlanta, Georgia.

The Housing Department of the League worked under the leadership of Robert A. Thompson and Grace Towns Hamilton to foster relationships between community groups, banks, and insurance companies to assist in providing affordable housing for African Americans in Atlanta, Georgia.
