5 Reasons to Start Your Direct Support Professional Career at Clarvida
Each September, we pause to recognize the incredible contributions of Direct Support Professionals (DSPs) during DSP Recognition Week. DSPs empower individuals, support families, and strengthen communities every single day. Their compassion, dedication, and resilience remind us of the powerful impact purpose-driven careers can have.
At Clarvida, our leadership is deeply inspired by the work of our Direct Support Professionals. As Corey McCann, Associate Director of IDD Operations, shares:
“I’m so proud of our incredibly dedicated and compassionate DSPs at Clarvida. Their work transforms lives, and their passion inspires all of us to keep growing and serving with purpose.”
To see this in action, watch our video The Life-Changing Work of Professionals at Clarvida. It shines a spotlight on the incredible ways our DSPs and care teams transform lives, and how this work transforms them too.
