Today we went to La Pizzaria to celebrate our DSP, Zach Yun! We are so proud of him for winning the ENERGY award this year. Congratulations Zach! 🤩

A huge thank you to Stark County Board of Developmental Disabilities (Stark DD) for putting on this luncheon to help us celebrate all of the wonderful DSPs in our community!

A beautiful night to spend time with friends watching baseball! What a great way to end the week!⚾️

I love my job❤️

5th and final day of celebrating our DSP's this week! Although we show our appreciation this week, we do appreciate all the work you do EVERY SINGLE DAY!

For those who are unaware - DSP stands for Direct Support Professional and they are our staff who assist individuals with disabilities to lead a self-directed life and contribute to the community.

To all the DSPs out there working hard each and every day: It is because of YOU that the individuals in our community that need support are able to live happy, successful and fulfilled lives. You should be PROUD of all the good you do each day!

Thank a DSP today!!

Day 4 of DSP Appreciation week calls for lunch from Chick-fil-a or Canes! We hope all our staff had a delicious lunch today! We appreciate you all so much! 🫶🏼

Day 3 of celebrating our amazing DSPs! Today we have custom made Yeti cups with their name on them to stay hydrated throughout the day!

Our DSPs work so hard each and every day. It is because of them that we are able to continue to help support all of the individuals we serve! We are so grateful for them.

Little cooler weather didn’t stop us from having a good time. Helps when the water temp is 90 and you have a hot tub.

Canoeing! What a great time! Trying to get as much summer in as possible! 🛶
