I’m writing to let you know that DSP Recognition Week is the 2nd week of September, 9/11 to 9/17/22; however, we are celebrating throughout the month of September, 2022. 

We are celebrating the exceptional work of our Direct Support Professionals (DSPs).  They ensure that the Individuals that we support have a rich and meaningful life every day.  They provide not only personal care, but assist people with intellectual & developmental disabilities, autism & acquired brain injury to have a life in their community; assist them to manage their home, their health, their money, develop relationships with friends & family, understand their needs, ensure they participate in preferred community activities, communicate in a preferred language, advocate, and much more…

We need more DSPs to help us do the work and meet our WCI mission.  Please reach out and assist us in finding more DSPs to support the work we do at WCI.

In addition, please join us and celebrate the work of our current DSPs who were there for the people we supported during the onset of COVID and to this day are keeping them safe and healthy.

Join us in celebrating not only their efforts and dedication for what they do, but for all their years of service.  WCI has people who have been with us for almost a year to over 25 years.

In addition, WCI has and will be this month providing our DSPs with Gift Cards, a WCI Logo Gift, a Celebration Event on 9/21/22 and a big Thank You for everything that they do. 

Please reach out and help us thank all of them for all that they do each and every day!!!  Reach out and give a gift to our DSPs in a 24 Hour home, Individual Supports, an Employment & Day Program, Shared Living or our ABI program.

Thank you for taking the time to show your appreciation during DSP Recognition Week, through a note, email or donation to your favorite DSP staff, supervisor or program!

Thank you,

Nancy Silver Hargreaves, President & CEO
