In this mini series focusing on kids and family resources, we are very excited to share with you this episode with guest Mike Lansing. Mike is the founder of the San Pedro Youth Coalition, founded in 1988 which is responsible for so many popular places in our community for kids and families. He has been the Executive Director at the Boys and Girls Clubs of the Los Angeles Harbor for over 29 years. Having grown up in San Pedro and being a young member of the San Pedro Boys Club, he saw the many benefits of having a place between home and school where he could develop new skills and be active. Since then the Boys Club has expanded to girls and in large part due to Mike’s efforts, the Harbor area clubs now also have more programs for teenagers and academic advancement. Mike is a hero without a cape in this community and it's good to know that people like Mike are working to make this world a better place for our youth. You can also find more content from Mike Lansing from his columns in the San Pedro Today Magazine.
