This year, September 13th-19th, we proudly celebrate Direct Support Professional Appreciation Week and recognize the dedicated DSPs who make a meaningful difference in the lives of the people they support every day.
Direct Support Professionals are advocates, caregivers, mentors, teachers, problem-solvers, and trusted companions. Through their compassion, patience, and commitment, they help people achieve their goals, build independence, and experience a full life.
Their work often happens behind the scenes, but its impact is seen in every success, every milestone, and every moment of connection. DSPs are the heart of the services they provide, and their dedication strengthens individuals, families, and communities.
Keep an eye out for messages of appreciation that will be added to this page throughout the week!
