ENCLOSURES:
It is respectfully recommended that the City Commission adopt the attached Resolution authorizing
a contribution to the Police Athletic League (PAL) Program, in an amount not to exceed

BACKGROUND
The Police Athletic League ("PAL") currently provides several programs that merge sports and
recreation with good citizenship activities; supplemented by substance abuse education, tutoring
and career counseling. PAL serves over 2,000 youths, between the ages of 8 and 18, through
seasonal sports and other programs within the City of Miami. Examples of these programs include
sporting events, homework club, computer training, safety presentation (crime prevention, first aid,
and civics), youth talent shows, and other types of organized activities.
PAL is requesting funding for its recreational staff who supervise programs being offered within
City parks located in the North, Central and South districts. PAL personnel will monitor all
activities in conjunction with City of Miami Parks and Recreation on-site staff, plan and organize
recreational/educational activities, and promote PAL sponsored events within City parks. Funding
will also be utilized to purchase participants uniforms, equipment needed for recreational activities,
computers and educational software, as well as, cover other expenses associated with program
activities. This is an innovative approach to supplement existing resources and provide for a safer
environment for the youth of our community.
