Our gang prevention program will start in February! Thanks to Rev. Devon Harris for Partnering with us to help save our Youth in Jefferson County. “Another Chance,” mentor program target our young men from the ages of 12 to 17. The main focus will be on gang prevention and teaching them to be productive men in our community. We will be having instructor training Monday, February 3rd, 6pm until 9pm. If you are interested in becoming a instructor and volunteering your time and service you will have to attend Monday’s session in order to teach curriculum. If you are interested in more information contact Chief Walker. Sponsors are welcome to donate as well. #WeAreWadleyWeAreOne
