Our Impact
HJTEP is so much more than a tennis program, we are a connected community and service organization. And now more than ever before, we feel the weight of our responsibility to our young people, their families, and our larger community. Together, we will meet the difficult challenges of our time with excellence and strength.
For more than 50 years, HJTEP has worked to meet the educational needs of youth from high risk, low income, inner city neighborhoods in New York City. A blended sports, education and wellness program have helped us to teach, mentor and shape our program participants into leaders ready for the next steps on their journeys.
Serve approximately 1000 +/- students annually
95% of our participants graduate from high school
80% are admitted to leading private and public universities
On average, HJTEP students maintain a 3.1GPA
"Not only does HJTEP offer an amazing tennis program, but they stress the importance of education which is a parent's dream! They talk about it to the kids and they talk about it to the parents, offering several tutoring and enrichment programs to help kids succeed at school. I think that speaks volumes about a sports program!"
