NEWPORT NEWS, Va. (UPI) -- Ex-NFL quarterback Michael Vick has left a
construction job to work with the Boys & Girls Clubs of the Virginia
Peninsula, the clubs' executive director says.
Vick, who was released from prison in May, teaches youngsters health
and fitness activities, the Newport News (Va.) Daily Press said
Wednesday.
"It's been positive," Steven Kast, executive director of the clubs,
told the News. "The kids seem to be very receptive of him and, by all
accounts, he seems to be having a great time."
Vick, who was imprisoned on dog-fighting conspiracy charges, had been
earning $10 an hour working for the W.M. Jordan construction firm in
Newport News. He earns $9 an hour at the clubs.
The terms of his release to home-confinement in Hampton stipulate that
he hold a paying job.
The clubs worked with the U.S. Federal Probation Office to provide the
job. It ends July 20, the day Vick is released from home confinement.
