Direct Support Professionals do more than provide care—they build connections, encourage growth, and create joy every single day.

We are grateful for their servant hearts and the impact they make in the lives of the people we serve.

When you have over 700 employees scattered throughout 27 counties you have to be creative getting to those DSP’s that work directly with the clients. Thanks to Cheryl’s cookies for helping us deliver appreciation, smiles and a little treat as we celebrate DSP week!

As Ms. Jackie said, “all the little things make a big difference!” And we feel the same about our amazing staff!

It's always fun to celebrate a quirky holiday in the middle of the week, right?!? 🧔🎉

So... Happy World Beard Day!

We couldn’t let the day pass without giving a shoutout to our fearless (and bearded) leader, Brett! His beard might not be in the job description, but it definitely adds to the fun, approachable, and one-of-a-kind energy he brings to First Step every day.

With over 26 years of dedication and a true servant’s heart, Brett leads with compassion, commitment, and a little bit of beard-powered inspiration.
