National Direct Support Professional (DSP) Week is approaching fast, and we’re thrilled to take this moment to extend our deepest thanks to each of our DSPs. Your ongoing commitment and dedication to our organization are truly invaluable.

To celebrate our DSPs, we’re hosting a special DSP Recognition event this year at the Columbus Hollywood Casino. They will be looking forward to an evening of fine dining and dancing in an exclusive event space tailored just for our DSPs. The night will feature heartfelt speeches from Executive Director Becky Porter, Ann Weisent of the Ohio Department of Developmental Disabilities (DODD), and Open Door Board Member Kylea Davis. We will enjoy a delicious three-course meal and dance our hearts out for a chance to win some fantastic prizes!

To all our DSPs: Thank you for your unwavering dedication to Open Door and the individuals we support. You inspire life journeys every day, break down barriers, and make the inaccessible accessible. Your care goes beyond providing support—you truly change lives. We are deeply grateful for everything you do!

As DSP Week approaches, stay tuned for more features and expressions of gratitude as part of ANCOR’s campaign. Follow us on social media to catch all the updates and celebrate with us!
