AEDD, Inc.

Volunteer ALERT‼️ We are looking for a few more volunteers to help us next week at Sam Sanders Memorial Tee Off Classic. This is such a fun event and a great way to get plugged into our organization + networking opportunity 🤩. Reach out to [email protected] for more info!

The value direct support professionals (DSPs) bring to our communities cannot be overstated. As personal care professionals, DSPs assist the people they support with the most intimate activities of daily living. As community coaches, DSPs help the people they support open doors to employment and a sense of community. And as relationship navigators, DSPs are often the bridge between the people they support and their friends, family members and significant others.
For these and 1,001 other reasons, DSPs deserve to be recognized, appreciated, and celebrated for their efforts
Thank You and YOU ROCK!

The staff at AEDD is looking forward to seeing everyone next week at the Sam Sanders Memorial Tee Off Classic! There is still time to register to play all benefiting AEDD's Jobs 4 You program.
