Join a team that is here to impact the lives of the people we serve.
"When I was a Direct Support Professional I loved to go out into the community with the individuals, it was so fun to see them learn new things and find such joy in everything around them."
“I love it here. The staff is great, the host home providers are incredible, and individuals and students are great. You become attached. It’s very special.”
"I really couldn’t do this without my team. The success of our classroom is not because of a teacher, or one single person. The collaboration is every staff member, it’s our whole team. Kendra is the best. Our speech, our OT, other para’s, … it’s a team effort of people that make a difference in the school."
“I get to do something I not only enjoy, but I also get to give back to the community in a tangible way. What motivates me is how I want the future to be, along with the work I get to do and the people I get to work with.”
“Our participants are here not only for them to learn, but they are here to teach us. They teach us how to be patient, how to be tolerant, how to be loving, how to be affectionate, how to be happy, how to smile, how to turn anger into calmness, how to speak instead of yelling… I could go on and on.”
