Direct Support Professional - Day Services - Penn Yan

Mozaic (A Chapter of The Arc NY) is seeking compassionate and motivated Direct Support Professionals to support people with disabilities during daytime hours.

Direct Support Professionals (DSP) Duties:

In this role, you'll work in community‑based and habilitation settings, helping people develop skills, stay connected in their communities, and move toward greater independence.

As a DSP, you'll build meaningful relationships through respectful, person‑centered support that encourages confidence and positive self‑esteem. Your daily work will include assisting with transportation, appointments, personal care, and routines while following individualized care plans, medication guidelines, and safety protocols to support overall well‑being.

More than providing day‑to‑day assistance, DSPs are strong advocates-championing the rights, choices, and goals of the people they support. You'll collaborate with families, healthcare providers, and case managers to ensure services remain coordinated and responsive to each person's unique needs.

If you're looking for a purpose‑driven career where your work makes a real impact every day, Mozaic offers the opportunity to turn compassion into a rewarding profession.
