Aside from employment opportunities at Preble DD, there are many other jobs available to support people with developmental disabilities. A Direct Support Professional (DSP) is someone who works directly with people who have intellectual or developmental disabilities. DSPs can either work for an agency that provides adult day services, personal care, transportation or other services, or they may be independently certified by the Ohio Department of Developmental Disabilities.

All DSPs aim to assist people in realizing their full potential by helping them become integrated and engaged in their community. Again, these positions are not Preble DD positions. To learn more about becoming a DSP, visit  https://westconcog.org/new-provider/
