At LARC, our mission is simple but powerful: to help people with intellectual and developmental disabilities reach their potential — and to do it with kindness, creativity, and joy.

Whether you’re just starting out in the human services field or already have experience supporting others, becoming a Direct Support Professional (DSP) can be the first step (or the next step) in a deeply rewarding career.

  • Encourage skill development and independence.
  • Create and participate in fun, meaningful activities — from cooking and crafts to community outings.
  • Offer compassion, laughter, and positivity that truly makes a difference.

Get paid to have fun, connect, and empower others — all while gaining professional skills that can launch your career in human services, education, healthcare, or behavioral support.
