Direct Support Professional Appreciation Week (September 8-14, 2024) is a great opportunity to highlight our direct support professionals whose dedication and compassion are the heart and soul of Goodwill Columbus.
Goodwill Columbus Direct Support Professionals are dedicated to the amazing individuals who they support through hard work and special care. The true meaning of the Goodwill Columbus mission, empowering the lives of individuals through pathways to independence, can be seen in the work our DSPs do everyday. Thank you DSPs, for all that you do!
