Running Rebels Community Organization is a positive alternative for Milwaukee youth. In 1980, at the young age of 19, Victor Barnett saw that the youth of Milwaukee were being pulled into the street life of gangs, crime, and violence. He used basketball as the tool to engage, mentor and guide youth towards an alternative path that would ensure their future success. From this vision and action, Running Rebels Community Organization was born.

Running Rebels offers an array of programs--from after school sports & arts programs to intensive mentoring & monitoring for court-appointed youth as an alternative to incarceration.
