PAL is a youth crime prevention programme that uses educational, athletic and recreational activities to create trust and understanding between police officers and young people.
Whether it be through mountain biking or judo, it is believed that if reached early enough, youngsters can develop strong positive attitudes towards police officers, thus instilling responsible values and attitudes.
There are over 400 PAL Member Chapters in law enforcement agencies over 700 cities and 1,700 facilities throughout the United States, providing activities to over two million young people aged 5 to 18.
