Frequently Asked Questions

HYPAR has a range of tailored supports available to meet the needs of each participant. We currently operate across three core service areas, Mentoring, Supported Independent Living (SIL) and Disability Support.

Here at HYPAR, we strive to provide tailored support solutions for participants and their Parents/ Guardians. Under the Mentoring model, we work with our participants to achieve positive behavioural changes and help to develop life skills to set them up for success. Most importantly, we are not just support workers! Our Mentors are carefully picked and have a wealth of experience to provide constructive and effective support to participants and their Parents/ Guardian.

We currently support ages 6–30 years. Participants who fall outside of that age range will be assessed on a case-by-case basis.
