“Participation in the PAL program has had a positive impact on the children who attend one of the centers. There are countless stories of youth avoiding going down a dangerous path because of their participation in PAL programs.” says Chief George Turner.
This year’s matches feature 10 fights between Police Officers against Firefighters and other public safety officials. Atlanta Police Officer Alicia Turner will face off against Grady Hospital Paramedic Danielle Ashley.
