Being a Direct Support Professional at CP Unlimited

Why CP Unlimited?

Our DSP team goes the extra mile helping the people we support achieve fulfilling lives. By fostering personal choice and assisting them with everything from daily living activities to Day Habilitation programs and social outings, our Direct Support Professionals create meaningful and beneficial impact in the lives of our persons supported built on mutual trust, care, and respect.

Direct Support Professionals / Direct Care Counselors also constitute the majority of our workforce by number- more than half of our 2,000+ strong CP Family is comprised of DSPs, making their role central to our mission and success. None of what we achieve would be possible without their contributions, passions, and talents.
