PAL Program
The PAL program is designed for men and women aged twenty-one and over and provides peer socialization opportunities for adults who have developmental or mental health disorders and who exhibit poor communication and social skills as a result.
This population usually has difficulty establishing and maintaining relationships with their peers. The program offers the opportunity for friendship and group recreation on an on-going, monthly basis.

The PAL Coordinator pre-plans group-appropriate activities approximately three times per month. Examples of activities planned are: • Plays • Musicals • Museums and concerts • Going bowling • Playing Miniature Golf • Dining Out • Picnics and Nature Walks |
PAL staff supervises each activity and helps to facilitate conversation and interaction among participants. They also serve as role models for social skills.
