Why It Matters
You'll help people make informed choices, build friendships, learn life skills, and participate fully in their community — creating confidence, connection, and joy every day.
Are you a compassionate, supportive individual who wants to help people with disabilities live meaningful, independent, and joyful lives? As a Direct Support Professional (DSP), you'll provide hands-on support while teaching skills, encouraging community participation, and building positive, professional relationships.
What You'll Do
- Support individuals in community activities: shopping, movies, ball games, library trips, hobbies, local events, and other meaningful outings.
- Teach skills for a clean, safe home, including laundry, cooking, cleaning, and grocery routines.
- Assist with personal care needs (bathing, grooming, mealtime) and promote healthy habits.
- Provide support aligned with each person's Person-Centered Support Plan (PCSP) and teach skills that increase independence.
- Collaborate with Case Managers, direct care staff, and supervisors; participate in PCSP teams.
