Join Our Team as a Direct Support Professional (DSP) and Make a Difference!

Are you ready for a job that’s meaningful, rewarding, and fun? At the Work Training Center, we’re looking for enthusiastic, caring, and motivated individuals to join our team as Direct Support Professionals (DSPs).

This is more than just a job—it’s an opportunity to make a lasting impact on the lives of adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities, helping them achieve their goals, gain independence, and live life to the fullest.

What You’ll Do :

  • Provide person-centered support, leading individuals in 1 : 1 or group activities that encourage growth, skill-building, and engagement in their daily lives.
  • Be a positive role model, celebrating milestones and encouraging appropriate behaviors and emotions.
  • Assist with creating and implementing Individual Service Plans (ISPs) tailored to each participant’s unique goals and needs.
  • Help participants enjoy meaningful activities, from creative projects to life-skills workshops.
  • Maintain accurate records, complete daily case notes, and ensure timely updates on progress.
  • Coordinate and provide transportation to ensure participants can access their programs and activities.
  • Work closely with a supportive team to create a positive and empowering environment.

Physical Demands :

  • Regularly engage in physical activity, including standing, walking, bending, twisting, lifting, and reaching.
  • Assist individuals with transferring in and out of vehicles as necessary.
  • Use your hands and manual dexterity for tasks and support.
  • Communicate effectively with clear vision, hearing, and speech to ensure safety and engagement.
  • Reasonable accommodation will be provided as needed.
  • Why You’ll Love It Here :

  • Impactful Work : Your efforts will create meaningful, positive changes in the lives of others.
  • Supportive Team : Work with a group of passionate, like-minded individuals who value collaboration and care.
  • Dynamic Experiences : No two days are the same—you’ll find variety, creativity, and connection every step of the way.
  • Career Growth : Build valuable skills and explore opportunities for advancement in a rewarding field.
  • Be Appreciated : Your dedication and impact won’t go unnoticed. Every smile, milestone, and achievement will remind you why you do what you do.
  • What We’re Looking For :

  • Heart and Energy : A positive attitude and a passion for helping others thrive.
  • Experience & Skills : Training or experience in human services is helpful, but kindness, patience, and a willingness to learn are most important.
  • Tech-Savvy : Comfortable using simple software to track progress and stay organized.
  • Education : Preferred qualifications include an associate's degree or higher, though it is not required.
  • Language Skills : Bilingual skills are highly appreciated, as they enhance communication and connection with participants.
  • Adventure-Ready : Willingness to work evenings and weekends as needed, with a valid CA driver’s license to keep the fun going.
  • Qualifications : Must be 18 years or older and meet pre-employment requirements, including a clear background check, drug screening, and First Aid / CPR certification (can be obtained within two months of hire).
  • Ready to Make a Difference?

    Join us and be part of a mission-driven organization where your work truly matters.
