PALS has participated in formal evaluations to better understand its impact across participants with and without down syndrome.
UMASS STUDY 2018
In 2018, PALS teamed up with the Center for Social Development and Education at the University of Massachusetts Boston to conduct a formal evaluation about PALS’ impact on participants without Down syndrome.
RUTGERS STUDY 2021
In 2021, a PALS volunteer conducted a research-backed study of the effects of PALS on participants with Down syndrome.
PALS Strategic Plan
In 2020, PALS created a strategic plan with a vision to inspire a world of belonging by concentrating our efforts and creating balanced camp communities. We will establish 9 program regions centered around major metropolitan areas where we host programs for all of our age groups (12-18, 18-25, 25+) and build camp communities that represent the demographics of that region.
