More than 55 years ago, a group of university professors and social activists created University Research Co., LLC (URC) to address the social issues of the 1960s. Today URC has grown into a global company of some 1,000 employees that has experience implementing projects in 80 countries, including the United States.Although the organization has transformed and grown, our drive to empower communities and systems to adopt change that matters in health, and social services remains the same.
