NATIONAL POLICE ATHLETIC LEAGUE
PREVENTING JUVENILE CRIMES AND VIOLENCE BY PROVIDING CIVIC, ATHLETIC, RECREATIONAL AND EDUCATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES AND RESOURCES TO LOCAL PAL CHAPTERS ACROSS THE COUNTRY.
The National Police Athletic League, a 100 year old organization is the only one in the United States that is chartered to build capacity between the nation’s police and youth. Today, there are over 700 PAL Member Chapters in law enforcement agencies servicing over 700 cities and 1,700 facilities throughout the United States, including the U.S. Virgin Islands, serving more than one million youth, ages 5 to 18.
PAL is based on the conviction that young people - if they are reached early enough - can develop strong positive attitudes towards police officers in their journey through life toward the goal of maturity and good citizenship. The PAL program brings youth under the supervision and positive influence of a law enforcement agency and expands public awareness about the role of a police officer and the reinforcement of the responsible values and attitudes instilled in young people by their parents.
