Strategic Engagement Partners

PAL's programs operate throughout all Boston neighborhoods. Thousands of children and young people benefit each year from PAL resources. From youth/police dialogues to basketball games, from Junior Police Academy to flashlight walks, from book clubs to boxing lessons - Boston youth are interacting with police every day. PAL makes this possible.

Superintendent-in-Chief Gregory Long, Boston Police Department

The Unity Basketball Program gives the State Police and our partner organizations the opportunity to invest in the future of our young people by strengthening relationships between Troopers, youth players, and the surrounding communities. This important investment of resources and time and the constructive interaction with the players will reap important benefits, including the understanding of the common ground, common values, and common goals shared by law enforcement officers and community members alike.
