Community Outreach
Through tennis, the DTP aims to support youth and families toward an equitable future by providing tools, opportunities, and partnerships that advance mental and physical wellness.
Our Community Outreach embodies the belief that tennis is more than just a sport — it's a vehicle for positive change.
Each year, the DTP brings the attributes of tennis to more than 2,500 youth in under resourced communities through free community programs such as Colorado SERVES and in-school enrichment classes. We are changing the narrative that tennis is exclusive by making it accessible, fun, and diverse!
We are committed to intentional outreach, sparking discussions on the sidelines, and fostering a diverse and supportive community. Our goal is to impact families positively, creating lasting memories and opportunities for growth on and off the tennis court. It's not just about numbers; it's about the tangible difference we make in the lives of individuals and communities.
Our mission goes beyond the confines of the court, touching hearts, families, and neighborhoods across Denver.
Community Partners
Building partnerships and relationships is an important aspect of our work at the DTP. Our mission is to provide a quality tennis program and make it affordable and accessible for underserved Denver communities, and our partners help us achieve it.
We begin by connecting our youth with our partner organizations and making our resources available to them. We have supported and collaborated with our partners in various ways, including donations, community events, volunteer work, collaboration, and more. Our work would be limited and unsustainable without our partners.
Community Advisory Committee
The Community Advisory Committee (CAC) is made up of community members and parents who participate in and/or support the DTP’s efforts to advance equitable access to the benefits of tennis. Formed in 2022, the CAC’s purpose is to guide the DTP’s strategy and ability to authentically build partnerships, deliver programs, and conduct outreach in communities that typically don’t have access or don’t feel welcome in the sport of tennis.
If you have interest in learning more or are interested in being considered to join the CAC, please contact Kelly Winn at kwinn@denvertennispark.org.
