Our mission: “Using tennis as a medium,
Portland After-School Tennis works with youth from diverse cultures to prepare
them for a lifetime of personal achievement and successful citizenship.” Our core values: Inclusion Education Community Our history: Portland After-School Tennis

programming, adding summer park sites and indoor school tennis from Head Start
