DSP Recognition Week 2022

NASP Top 10 DSPs

Direct Support Professional Recognition Week (September 11-17, 2022) is a great opportunity to highlight the dedicated, innovative direct support workforce that is the heart and soul of supports for people with disabilities. Our celebrations of the DSPs at the heart of our field are part of a statewide party we throw every year to showcase the amazing and often unsung work of these incredible professionals, and mark just a small fraction of the recognition that they deserve throughout the year.

We had over 70 amazing nominations for our Top 10 this year!  I wish each and every one knows just how much they are valued by the agencies they work for - the recommendations were absolutely glowing.
