Mission

Torrington Police Activities League (PAL) is a 501c3 whose mission is to deter violence & encourage over 1000 kids to stay in school through positive after school and recreational programming in partnership with law enforcement, educators, and community business leaders. By forming strong relationships with these community leaders and enhancing communication with police, we have found stronger increased attachment to the community for these children and their families who because of ethnicity or income have not previously self identified as such. Our program is successful because our officers and community leaders act as great role models to our PAL members as well as beacons of hope for kids who may not have thought higher education in our community was possible or that having a career in our community was possible for them. We highlight especially business leaders who have lived, been educated in & have worked in our town most of their lives. We take field trips with the kids to show
