John McGivern talks to Victor Barnett from Running Rebels

John McGivern talked to Victor Barnett from Running Rebels about the Holton Youth + Family Center, one of Safe & Sound’s Safe Places. Safe & Sound is also part of the Violence Prevention Initiative Collaborative at the center which has been developing and implementing anti-violence strategies and research since last year.

McGivern’s program is called “Around the Corner.” He is an emmy-winning actor taking viewers on a field trip through 13 diverse towns and neighborhoods from Sheboygan to Racine, and Burlington to Brady Street. We are proud to have him visit Riverwest and the Holton Youth + Family Center to talk with Victor Barnett who is one of Milwaukee’s most hard working, dedicated and sincere individuals when it comes to improving the lives of youth and families.
