The basic mission of PAL is to offer youth of Dunn and the surrounding area a
viable alternative to the temptations of street life, which can lead to a life
of crime, alcoholism, drugs, vandalism and delinquency. PAL keeps young men and
women active, interested and busy through its supervised/ multifaceted programs
geared to develop leadership traits and build good citizens for tomorrow. PAL is
dedicated to instilling in youth a value system that recognizes the need to
respect and protect human rights and to uphold and obey the laws of our city,
state and nation.
PAL Profile

provide an alternative means of enjoyment and activities
other than hanging out on the streets. Promote good clean fun, teamwork,
responsibility, self respect and problem solving.
Dunn PAL was first
implemented in the summer of 1995 and has an active Advisory Board that
meets the First Monday of Every Month at 6:30 P.M. Most Dunn PAL
Activities are funded through public and private donations. Some
programs are funded partially from local and federal grants. All
programs are operated by volunteers, and we always need volunteers to
keep our programs in operation. Dunn PAL is a chartered member since
1996 with the National Association of Police Athletic Leagues (NAPAL)
