WHO IS H.Y.P.E.?
Healthy Youth Promotion Effort (HYPE) - Addresses the role of mentoring and other protective factors in preventing youth from engaging in high-risk behaviors. Goals are to create a community in which youth and parent figures feel competent and confident seeking services and programs that can meet their needs and which consistently promote youth development through prevention activities that reduce substance abuse and other risky behaviours by planning, implementing and promotion.
