Mission:
Tenacity is a rapidly growing youth development organization providing intensive athletic, academic, and life skills development programs to Boston youth. The mission of Tenacity is to improve the scholastic, character, and physical development of urban youth by combining tennis instruction and academic support with a focus on life skills. This vision is realized by two distinct yet complementary core programs: the three-year After-School Excellence Program (ASEP) consisting of intensive tennis, literacy, and life-skills development tutoring for Boston middle school students, and the Summer Tennis and Reading Program consisting of free tennis instruction and reading for children ages 7-15 offered in partnership with Boston Centers for Youth and Families (BCYF). Three additional offerings complement these core programs: ASEP Alumni Club, Elementary School Tennis, and High School Tennis.
