HELLO!

We’re working on an exciting new program just for PAL youth, and we’d love your help to shape it.

The program is all about helping you develop GRIT—a combination of passion, perseverance, and the ability to grow through life’s experiences.

But GRIT is more than just "not giving up." It’s about discovering your strengths, building confidence, staying resilient during challenges, and finding ways to thrive and help others.

Your feedback will help us create a program that’s fun, helpful, and meaningful. This survey will take about 5-10 minutes to complete. There are no right or wrong answers! It's your choice to take this survey and you can skip any questions you don't want to answer.

If you have any questions or want need to talk to someone, please reach out to me (my email is below) or another PAL staff member.

Thanks for being part of this process—we’re excited to hear what you think!
