About HOLLENBECK POLICE ACTIVITIES LEAGUE

Hollenbeck Police Activities League (Hollenbeck PAL) is a donor-facing 501(c)(3) nonprofit based in Los Angeles that was founded by community residents and the LAPD Hollenbeck Division in 1992 and incorporated as a nonprofit (501(c)(3)) in 2003.

The organization operates youth development and delinquency-prevention programs — including its diversion program (Get It Straight / DVPIP), Sports 4 Kids, Life Camera Action!, and PAL-UP career/mentoring services — providing case management, conflict-resolution training, mental-health supports, and recreational programming for high-risk youth and families.

Hollenbeck PAL maintains an active web presence (annual reports and newsletters) and continues to run programming and community partnerships through 2023–2024, including collaborations with local universities, municipal partners, and funders to deliver services in Boyle Heights and surrounding neighborhoods.

Notable achievements

Secured independent 501(c)(3) nonprofit status in 2003, establishing formal governance and a community-led board to expand services beyond the original LAPD-founded youth center.

Diversion & family-strengthening program expansion

Developed and scaled a juvenile diversion and delinquency-prevention program (Get It Straight / DVPIP) that provides multi-month case management, family and parenting trainings, and mental-health referrals for high-risk youth in partnership with LAPD and local university social-work programs.

Sustained community programming and fundraising

Maintained regular donor-facing activities (annual gala, newsletters, seasonal campaigns) and program delivery through recent years, demonstrating ongoing operations, volunteer/intern partnerships, and municipal grant support.
