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.
