On Fridays this month we're bringing back some of Bob's award winning programs. Today we replay Bob's interview which won a Gabriel Award in October. Bob spends the hour with Father Gregory Boyle in East Los Angeles. For nearly two decades, Father Boyle has helped thousands of East L.A. gang members trade a life of violent crime for an honest day's work. Father G-Dog, as he's been nicknamed by the community, is the founder of Homeboy Industries, whose mission is to find and create jobs for ex-gang members. Homeboy Industries runs five businesses of its own; the newest is Homegirl Cafe. (www.homeboy-industries.org) [Broadcast Date: December 22, 2006]
