empowering our youth, strengthening our community

About us

At the Police Activities League of Massena (PAL Massena), we are committed to fostering the potential of our youth. In collaboration with local law enforcement, we offer positive mentoring, leadership development, academic assistance, educational opportunities, and sports and recreational activities through our comprehensive after-school and summer programs. We invite you to join us in creating a lasting impact within our community.


Our Mission: to ensure and enhance the quality of life for boys and girls of our community and its surrounding area, with special concern given to those who need us most.

Our Vision:   Young people will awaken a sense of possibility for their lives at the Club. We see the future generations in our youth that have the desire and capacity to transform their communities!

PAL offers educational, recreational, arts and technological programs as well as providing a home away from home for youth. We strive to help all youth reach their fullest potential. The end is realized by providing a safe environment in which to play learn and grow under the guidance of caring adult professionals acting as positive role models and mentors, utilizing services of volunteers who offer supplemental support.

We are focused on giving every child the opportunity to participate in everyday childhood activities in a safe and caring environment. We do this through a number of programs. Our goal is to provide diversity in our programs in order to reach the greatest number of young people.

We also strive to foster a partnership between the youth and the police officers in the community. This in and of itself is a tremendous asset to our community. Whenever you have young people in the community playing and working with police officers, the community will benefit.

PAL is a non-profit organization that offers children in Massena the opportunity to participate in youth athletics and activities. The goal of the PAL program is for every member to get the most out of his/her experience by having fun, developing sound skills and working within a team-oriented culture that fosters a positive attitude, while helping them constantly challenge themselves to achieve, improve, progress and learn.
