Developing Youth Leaders
Through Community Partnerships
That
Foster Effective Mentoring, Tutoring And
Coaching Programs
Incorporated in 1989, MIRAMAR PAL in cooperation
with the Miramar Police Department and City of Miramar provides year-round
educational and athletic youth related activities to youth between the
ages of 3 and 17 years old and their families. Students over the age
of 17 may serve as volunteers in our senior PAL program while adult volunteers
serve as mentors, tutors, coaches and referees.
MIRAMAR PAL provides mentoring, tutoring and coaching opportunities in
both competitive and non-competitive settings to over 1,200 youth.
The mission of the MIRAMAR PAL is to provide educational, athletic,
civic and crime prevention activities for youth in a safe environment
through a cooperative partnership between the police and the community.
Statistics show that greater numbers of youth,
regardless of their socio-economic, racial and ethnic background are
at risk. The Miramar PAL’s belief
is that every child can experience success provided they receive the
opportunity. Miramar PAL’s goal is to provide youth with those
opportunities through activities which build character and self-esteem,
foster positive relationships, enhance self-awareness and promote good
citizenship. Such activities are a major undertaking and requires the
support of parents, community leaders, police officers, businesses and
the general public. We ask and thank you for your support of the Miramar
Police Athletic League and in sharing our commitment in the advancement
of our community’s youth.
