Tennis for Special Populations is a tennis program designed to cater to those members of our community with mental/learning disabilities.

The USTA Special Populations' mission is to promote and develop adaptive recreational tennis programs for those individuals with differing abilities.

• Developmentally disabled (learning disabilities, autism, Down's Syndrome, intellectual disability)
• Physically disabled (birth defects, multiple sclerosis, traumatic brain injury, muscular dystrophy, hearing impaired, stroke, etc.)
• Consumers of mental health services (psychiatrically disabled, emotionally disturbed)
• At risk/environmentally disabled (substance abusers, mentally and physically abused, homeless, HIV positive individuals, persons within the juvenile justice system, etc.).

For each of these groups, USA Tennis Special Populations supports adaptive tennis programs, providing grant money, equipment and resources for specifically-tailored programs that provide fun, fitness and a positive social experience for participants.
