“The Community Support Professional is an essential part of the Community Services team. The CSP works 1:1 in the community with individuals who have I/DD. This includes helping run errands, attending doctors appointments and various leisure activities. The CSP makes a significant impact on the lives of the individuals who we support.”
“Working in the residential division of an agency that supports individual with disabilities is unlike any other healthcare profession and it is truly a pleasure. Our job in residential here at CWI is to support the individuals we care for in a safe and healthy environment while they try to be the best version of themselves and navigate the unknowns of life, just like the rest of us. Sometimes that means we are supporting them through some of the best days of their lives, some of the worst, and everything in between. That is what makes it so worthwhile.”
