They help with appointments, help to organize a schedule, and provide transportation. They help to shop for groceries and preparing meals that meet the specific individuals’ dietary needs. DSPs encourage engagement in social networks and community activities.


No direct care experience is necessary We provide extensive DSP training that covers the essential knowledge, ethical principles and practices, and skills necessary to provide direct support to individuals with I/DD. The individuals we serve receive person-centered and self-directed high quality long term supports and services. All staff receive paid professional training through our agency and Network180 (including CPR/FA certification.)

  • Supporting their overall health, safety, and personal care needs such as eating, bathing, dressing, and changing of briefs. Daily medication management. Maintaining specific dietary needs.
  • Helping to maintain their home and household tasks such as the cooking, cleaning, laundry, and shopping.
  • Being a role-model, mentor, and support staff.
