What You'll Do As a DSP, your role will vary depending on the program, but your impact will always be significant. Day Program DSPs (weekday, daytime hours): You'll support individuals in developing life skills and independence through activities such as self-care, hygiene, arts and crafts, vocational training, and community engagement. You'll help individuals build social skills, manage behaviors, and participate meaningfully in their daily routines. Accurate documentation and attention to health and safety are key parts of your role. Residential DSPs (afternoons, evenings, weekends, overnights): You'll assist individuals in their homes with daily living activities including meal preparation, medication support, hygiene, transportation, and housekeeping. You'll also help teach important life skills such as budgeting, relationship-building, and decision-making. By modeling positive behaviors and offering consistent support, you empower individuals to live as independently as possible. In both settings, you'll serve as a mentor, advocate, and role model-helping individuals build confidence, develop skills, and experience a higher quality of life. Why This Work Matters This is more than a job-it's an opportunity to be part of something meaningful. Every interaction, every skill taught, and every moment of support contributes to someone's independence and well-being.
