This is an in-home position (NOT YOUR HOME) — you'll work one-on-one, directly in the individual's home, providing personalized support in a comfortable, familiar setting.

Why You'll Love This Role

✔️ One-on-one support — work directly with an individual in their home, not a crowded facility ✔️ Competitive hourly pay ✔️ Paid training & certification provided ✔️ Supportive, close-knit agency — you're never just a number here ✔️ Room to grow — many DSPs move into higher-paying, specialized roles as the agency expands

What You'll Do

Provide compassionate, respectful support with daily living activities

Assist with community engagement, appointments, and personal goals

Help implement individualized support plans

Build trust and consistency through reliable, caring presence

What We're Looking For

A patient, dependable, and caring individual

Reliable transportation

Ability to pass a background check (FACIS/OIG screening)
