Love being out in the community instead of behind a desk? Join our Day Habilitation Without Walls (WOW) Program, where every day is different and every day makes a difference.
As a DSP II, you’ll support adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities as they participate in community activities, volunteer opportunities, recreational outings, and skill-building experiences throughout Western New York. Rather than working in a traditional facility, you’ll help people connect with their community and live fuller, more independent lives.
What You’ll Do:

Support individuals during community-based activities and outings
Assist with volunteer opportunities, recreation, and life-skills development
Encourage independence, confidence, and community engagement
Provide assistance with meals, personal needs, and daily supports as needed
Document services and individual progress
Help create meaningful experiences that align with each person’s goals

What We’re Looking For:

Compassionate, reliable, and positive attitude
Valid NYS driver’s license and ability to safely transport individuals when needed
Strong communication and teamwork skills
Human services experience is helpful but not required
High school diploma or equivalent preferred

Why You’ll Love This Role:
✅ No nights, weekends, or holidays
✅ Spend your day in the community, not inside four walls
✅ Build meaningful relationships while making a real impact
✅ Paid training and advancement opportunities
✅ Stable Monday–Friday schedule
✅ Work for one of Western New York’s leading human service organizations

If you’re looking for a career that’s active, rewarding, and centered around helping others experience all their community has to offer, we’d love to meet you. Apply today!
