Thank You, SmartHome DSPs

This week, Sept. 7-13, has been designated Direct Support Professional (DSP) Recognition Week as part of the American Network of Community Options and Resources’ (ANCOR) National Advocacy Campaign. Spearheaded by ANCOR members, with partners including the National Association of Direct Support Professionals (NADSP) and the National Association of State Directors of Developmental Disabilities Services (NASDDDS), National Direct Support Professional Recognition Week is celebrated annually across the country to honor the tens of thousands of workers who enable people with intellectual, developmental and other significant disabilities and their families to live healthy, community-oriented lives.

Locally, Colorado Governor John Hickenlooper issued a proclamation recognizing DSP Week and honoring these vital workers (click on the image to get a bigger view).

At Imagine!, DSPs are the heart and soul of our organization. Please take every opportunity you get this week (and the rest of the year, too) to say “thank you” and “job well done” to our superb collection of SmartHome DSPs.
