H.Y.P.E. Helping Youth Pursue Excellence

Restoring Hope. Rewriting Futures.

Mission Statement

At HYPE, our mission is to empower youth ages 16-24 through mentorship, education, and advocacy—equipping them with the tools, confidence, and support needed to navigate life’s challenges, plan for their future, and become strong, successful, contributing members of their communities.


Who We Are

HYPE is a youth mentorship program focused on empowering young adults between the ages of 16–24 to make informed decisions, develop life skills, and reach their full potential.

We recognize that today’s youth face unique challenges, and we are here to meet them with consistent mentorship, real-world education, and unwavering support. Our goal is to guide young people as they navigate education, careers, home life, and their future with confidence, resilience, and purpose.

Whether a teen is preparing for independence, overcoming obstacles, or simply needs a safe space to be heard—HYPE is here to walk with them every step of the way.
