- Recruit, train, and mentor a team of Direct Support Professionals (DSPs)
- Facilitate communication and keep teams aligned through regular meetings
- Support community involvement, relationships, and meaningful roles like employment
- Partner with families and allies
- Ensure health, safety, and regulatory compliance
- Advocate for each person’s rights, dignity, and opportunities
What We’re Looking For
- Strong communication and relationship-building skills
- Leadership, coaching, and problem-solving ability
- Organized, reliable, and detail-oriented
- Passion for inclusion and expanding opportunities for people with disabilities
Minimum Qualifications
- Minimum of two years experience in the field of intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) or a related field;
