THUNDER BAY – The Guardian Angels are shifting gears and moving forward into their Urban Angels program. Under the program, head of the Guardian Angels Canada, Ian Hodgkinson is leading a program that combines fitness, martial arts, and leadership that young people are taking to with gusto.
The program allows young people to deal with issues that they face in their lives.
The Guardian Angels recently stepped back on their street patrol program, to focus on helping youth.
The decision appears to be working out extremely well for all involved.
Today at the Guardian Angels Headquarters on May Street South, Mayor Hobbs stopped by to learn a little about the program and to meet the people who are taking the training.
The Mayor was suitably impressed.
