Start a School Program

getting started

Thank you for your interest in starting an ACEing Autism program at your school! We are excited to continue expanding across the United States and are very interested in connecting with you to help us achieve our mission. Scroll down to see the process to start a school-based program and to connect with us.

School-Based Process

Our school-based program can be delivered by your PE teacher, a teacher with an interest in tennis, an ABA therapist, or, when necessary, we can help to fill the position with a local tennis pro.

All great things start with a conversation and connection and we would love to tell you more about how our program can benefit your school, teachers, and students. If you’re interested in learning more about starting a program, the best thing you can do is schedule a meeting and review the First Serve Manual (provided in the meeting confirmation) so we can start a conversation with you!
