We Appreciate Our DSPs!

“Direct support professionals (DSPs) are people who work directly with people with physical disabilities, intellectual and/or developmental disabilities with the aim of assisting the individual to become integrated into his/her community or the least restrictive environment.”

This week is Direct Support Professionals Week which recognizes the important contributions of all DSP’s throughout the nation. I firmly believe that DSPs are the backbone of our organization, and Dungarvin’s most valuable and irreplaceable asset. On behalf of Dungarvin, I would like to join the 42 governors and the U.S. Senate in sincerely thanking our DSPs for the inspirational and awe inspiring work that they perform with compassion, patience and care each and every day. I am fortunate enough to visit many programs and have observed first-hand the quality and dedication that they bring to the individuals that we support. I am humbled to be in their presence.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
