Direct Support Professionals are the heart of our organization.  They play a vital role in helping individuals with developmental disabilities live fulfilling and indepenedent lives.  They provide day-to-day support with personal care, routines, and skill-building while also encouraging community involvement and inclusion.  DSPs are companions, advocates, and encouragers, making sure each person they support is treated with diginity and respect.  No two days are the same, but every day brings the opportunity to make a meaningful impact.  

A DSP position is more that just a job, it’s the foundation of a rewarding career.  Many leaders within our organization began as a DSP and advanced into supervisory or program management roles.  With ongoing training, certifications, and professional development opportuiites, DSPs have te potential to grown into positions of leadership and advocacy, shaping not only their own future, but also the future of disability sevices.
