At Charlesbrook Protection Services, the level of
service we provide is paramount. We maintain this by several different methods
but the main way is by employing the highest caliber of security guards
available. We aim not only to hire veterans from the Grand Rapids area, but
hire those veterans who may have faced challenges finding employment post
military service. Veterans working for us have expressed the difficulty transitioning
to civilian life. We feel a duty to
support our veterans in this transition.
Below is a
story Wood TV 8, a news station station did on one of our security guards. Sgt. DeYoung served 5 years in the Marines,
searching for IED’s with his Explosives Detection Dog, Cena. After their tour
in Afghanistan they were separated for over four years. Cena went on to serve 2
more tours with different handlers. Two
years ago they got reunited and now they are working together again for
Charlesbrook Protection Services.
Cena now serves as DeYoung's PTSD service dog. When DeYoung came to us, he told us of past
discrimination he had faced in the work place. We told him those days were over
for him. Not only does Cena help DeYoung
be able to utilize all of his training from the Marines, all of our clients
love Cena!
You can see them working together every other
Friday this summer during Movies in the Park at Ah-Nab-Awen Park, put on by
Dowtown Grand Rapids Inc. Stop by and say hello. This event is so much fun and family
friendly. We are extremely proud to employ these two heroes.
