<br />4c <br /> <br />The City of Paris has had a recurring problem with youth involvement in violence <br /> <br /> <br />and illegal drugs for some time. The city has addressed the problem by increased <br /> <br /> <br />police patrols and narcotics enforcement but a prevention program was needed <br /> <br /> <br />because the city had very little activities or recreational alternatives to occupy <br /> <br /> <br />young people, especially those in the 14 to 18 age group which are the most <br /> <br />susceptible to gang involvement and criminal activity. The P.A.L. has been <br /> <br /> <br />generously supported by the citizens and the City of Paris and major renovations <br /> <br /> <br />have been undertaken in the two story downtown building which was donated to the <br /> <br />P .A.L. by the daily newspaper, The Paris News after they moved into their new <br />building. <br /> <br />The activities proposed are to continue to organize and develop existing and new <br /> <br /> <br />youth activities to more effectively reach all children (with an emphasis on at-risk <br /> <br /> <br />children) and continue to increase the membership and attendance and continually <br /> <br /> <br />search for more ways to serve the children/juveniles in a manner which promotes <br /> <br />a healthy, safe and crime free lifestyle. We hope to add an additional 1 00 children <br /> <br /> <br />again this year. We have in operation a new game room with video games, billiards, <br /> <br />ping-pong, pin-ball machines and a snack bar. We are attempting to develop new <br /> <br />and innovative ways to cooperate with other business, educational and social <br /> <br />agencies in order to make the most efficient use of our grant funds. <br />
