What We Do 

Mission Pals is a free, community-based after-school youth program serving kids ages 9–13 in the Mission Division of Los Angeles. Founded on the belief that positive engagement can transform lives, our program brings together law enforcement, educators, mentors, and local families to support youth during the most formative years of their lives.

Our Story

IMG_0461.jpeg

In 2001, a few dedicated LAPD officers recognized a need in their community. Many local children lacked safe after-school environments, positive role models, and meaningful guidance. What began as a small gathering in a neighborhood gym has since evolved into a vibrant youth program that now supports hundreds of kids throughout the area.


Mission Pals was born out of compassion and a desire to give our youth the tools to thrive.
