Tutoring is important because each student learns in unique ways and at a different pace. It gives you a chance to work with youth and gain teaching and leadership experience. Knowing that you are making a difference in the life of young students and aiding in their academic growth is genuinely self-rewarding!
Help our high school level PAL Kids complete their homework assignments and use tools to improve their core math, science, history, and language arts skills. We are looking for individuals who can teach reading, writing, science, history, and arithmetic. Join us and have a significant impact on a child’s future. Hollywood PAL is dedicated to helping low-income youth in the Hollywood Community.
Hollywood PAL is willing to sign off on any community service hours and volunteer hours. This is a great opportunity for college and high school students to complete service hours or curriculum requirements.

Mission Statement
Hollywood PAL drives positive change in the community we serve by partnering with LAPD and school-aged youth in programs that celebrate diversity, equity, and inclusion and inspire personal excellence, social awareness, and civic engagement. We create opportunities for Officer and community volunteer led sports, academics and enrichment programs for youth to provide impactful opportunities for personal growth and development.
Description
The Police Activities League is a youth crime prevention program first instituted in the 1930's, which relies on a variety of athletic and recreational activities to cement a bond between police officers and youth. The program keeps "at-risk" kids off the street by providing them with positive alternatives to drugs and gangs and gives them a variety of ways to become more involved with their community. PAL is nationally program with a membership exceeding 1.5 million children aged 6 to 18. PAL has more than 300 law enforcement agencies serving over 700 cities with 1,700 facilities throughout the United States
The Hollywood PAL chapter, which was formed in 1996, aims to benefit youth by teaching skills and providing opportunities that might not normally be available. With the help of several LAPD officers who work full-time with our youth, we strive to teach children to become productive, responsible and caring individuals. The success of our organization is achieved through the hard work and dedication of the many who give their time and resources. Hollywood PAL offers martial arts, soccer, Hollywood Fit Club, the Junior Police Academy, the Youth Leadership Council, and a college scholarship program, as well as monthly special activities and field trips.
