The Police Athletic League of Jacksonville enriches the lives of children by creating positive relationships between law enforcement officers and the youth of our community through education, athletic, outreach, and teen leadership programs. Our work builds positive relationships between police officers and kids—through our collaborative partnership with the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office—and gives our kids, officers, and community the opportunity to grow stronger together. With the commitment and dedication of Sheriff Mike Williams and the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office, we are working to prevent crime by providing kids with the tools and support they need to break the cycle of violence and thrive. By providing opportunities to build positive relationships with officers, we give kids the best chance for their brightest futures.
