On September 10 through September 16, we celebrate Direct Support Professionals Week (DSP). Direct Support Professionals are an essential part of The Arc Gloucester. They provide support and services to our individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) where they work and live. 

Our DSP’s work tirelessly to make sure our individuals are well taken care of and most importantly, have fun! Whether it’s taking field trips to the aquarium, having a karaoke dance party, or learning how to grow a garden, our DSP’s do it all.

“In recognition of DSP Appreciation Week, I want to send a heartfelt “thank you!” for all that you do on behalf of the individuals we serve. DSP’s are the backbone of The Arc Gloucester and I am grateful for all you do to help make people’s lives safe, happy, and fulfilling. I hope you enjoy a wonderful week.” – Lisa Conley, CEO of The Arc Gloucester
