For 40 years, the Running Rebels organization has followed a consistent philosophy to develop young peopleâs potential and to reduce violence, drug use and gang activity through four guiding principles:Â
Keeping young people involved in beneficial, safe, and fun recreational and employment activities.
Encouraging each youthâs hopes and dreams while supporting young persons to achieve them.
Underscoring successful academic achievement as essential for responsible adult citizenship.
Employing supportive, caring adults who inspire trust and model the values, skills, and morals that we want at-risk youth to develop.
