Another Step, Inc. is seeking professional, compassionate Direct Support Professionals (DSPs) who are enthusiastic about making a positive difference in the lives of people with developmental disabilities.
Another Step offers a unique "without walls" approach to the provision of day supports for people with developmental disabilities. The agency provides all day support utilizing community resources. Participants are picked up at home in the morning and returned home at the end of the day. We develop and implement a meaningful schedule of activities based on the participant's individual preferences and needs that are delivered 100% in the community.
This is a great opportunity for people returning to the workforce (retirement, military service, empty nesters) or for those just starting out that enjoy helping others. Another Step provides paid training, helps to get you certified and builds skills that will create job security and enhanced earning power. Another Step likes to promote from within and many of our staff have remained with us many years.
