DIRECT SUPPORT PROFESSIONAL RECOGNITION WEEK CELEBRATING DSPS ACROSS NEW YORK STATE

AHRC Nassau celebrated DSPs and staff during their "Staff Appreciation Day." This year's theme was "Family Reunion," and reflected their excitement to reconnect and celebrate family- style. Staff were treated to a variety of fun activities, including a BBQ, ice cream, massages, volleyball, cornhole, yoga, t-shirts, and other surprises.

ACHIEVE — the Broome, Chenango and Tioga County Chapter of The Arc New York — also hosted a staff appreciation picnic to recognize all of their employees and the work they do every day.

At Mozaic — the Seneca,-Cayuga-Yates Counties Chapter of The Arc New York — DSPs are MVPs! Direct Support staff at Mozaic were gifted this awesome baseball-style shirt to thank them for being the MVPs that they are.
