A cadet program in the Bronx is helping at risk children by placing them on the path to success.
The Star of the Sea Cadet Corp holds its meetings at the Holy Family School in Castle Hill.
The group of about 50 cadets meets every Friday for two hours.
The program is intended to help guide youth and build discipline.
Organizers say the program is not connected to any branch of the military, however, the values of several branches are observed.
