The California PAL mission is to unite law enforcement and communities by providing educational, athletic and life enriching youth programs that develop discipline, positive self-image, mutual trust and respect.
Each PAL member chapter is operated by law enforcement officers who network within their respective communities to create collaborative relationships with youth.
PRIMARY GOALS

With Your Help, We are Making California a Better Place
Throughout our history two important facts have rung true. First, California PAL is dedicated to providing youth with the tools to succeed, and second the support of well informed, culturally and community informed officers can have a lasting impact on youth. Whether a donation of time, resources, or monetary gift, you are the driving force that allows us to continue our mission.
Because Every Kid Needs a PAL!
