About this episode:
Since
its inception in 1846, the orphanage that would become the Virginia Home for
Boys and Girls has been revitalizing and renewing the lives of at-risk
youth, teaching them behavioral and educational skills for a happy, healthy, and
productive future. This
community resource provides residential group counseling (where youths live
with ‘teaching parents’ in a collaboratively nurturing household) and
alternative education at the John G. Wood School (where youths are tutored
intensively with individualized attention). Inspire Indeed speaks with Claiborne Mason, President of
VHBG, and Pendle Whisnant, John G. Wood School volunteer tutor and VHBG
Volunteer of the Year.
