Provider Spotlight: Being Mentors

All people, regardless of ability, can add significant value to our community. That’s the philosophy of Being Mentors––a mentoring and support service helping participants to increase their skills and better contribute to society.

We caught up with the team to learn more about the services they provide and how they’re boosting success with participants.

Who are Being Mentors?

Being Mentors is a registered NDIS provider support work, guidance and
mentoring business that provides care, assistance and mentoring to people of all ages and

What’s the Being Mentors difference?

With a key focus on understanding the events and circumstances that have shaped a person,
we understand the impact of going above and beyond.

We pride ourselves on our Participant Journey––through our intake process and compatibility
assessments, we ensure that participants are introduced to a mentor who has the appropriate skill set, experience, and character to provide the best care. If we cannot guarantee this, we will refer to other trusted providers.

We currently have capacity to meet with new participants. We’re currently providing supports as far west as Werribee, up north to Mernda, down to the Mornington Peninsula and everywhere in between.

What’s the best way to get in touch?

You can refer a participant via our Participant Referral Form, or get in touch via our website or Facebook.

We’re also happy to visit offices to introduce ourselves in person and share our story.
