As a Direct Support Professional, you will:

  • Lead engaging community outings and activities for groups of up to 8 participants.
  • Safely transport participants to and from scheduled activities.
  • Encourage independence, socialization, and community inclusion.
  • Help individuals achieve personal goals outlined in their support plans.
  • Foster meaningful friendships and positive social interactions.
  • Support participants with budgeting and managing spending during activities.
  • Complete daily documentation including progress notes, daily logs, and incident reports before the end of each shift.
  • Maintain open communication with your team and supervisors.

  • Reliable personal vehicle
  • Current auto insurance
  • Good driving record
  • Ability to pass state-required background checks
  • Ability to stand, walk, bend, and lift up to 20 pounds
  • Basic computer and documentation skills
  • Ability to communicate effectively in English

Experience supporting individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities is preferred but not required—we provide training for the right candidate!


Why You'll Love Working at ACC

At Access Community Care, we believe every person deserves the opportunity to live a full, meaningful life. Our team is committed to creating inclusive experiences where individuals build confidence, independence, and lasting friendships.

When you join ACC, you'll become part of a supportive team that values:

  • Professional Growth

Every day is an opportunity to make a genuine difference in someone's life.


Schedule
