Led by Pastor Courtney Brown, URIM has distinguished itself through numerous community initiatives, including partnering with local businesses and organizations to provide free food and clothing, offering educational programs, hosting community events, establishing a music school, providing disaster relief during Hurricane Sandy, and supporting residents through challenging times like the COVID-19 pandemic.
