Willie is a former gangster who has turned his life around and now works as a youth counselor for young people with disabilities. Paralyzed from the waist down, he shares his experiences with the Homies, advising them on the potential consequences of living "La Vida Loca." Willie is deeply involved with the Homie Outreach and the Youth Gang Intervention Program run by Big Loco. He also provides encouragement and support to disabled Homies, motivating them to continue their physical therapy and reminding them that they can still live fulfilling lives if they let go of hate and bitterness. Willie rolls around in a custom Lowrider wheelchair that the Homies pitched in to get for him.
