Webinar: Proven Practices For Confronting DSP Workforce Issues

We all know the issues impacting the direct support professional (DSP) workforce. Recruitment challenges, low retention, high turnover, insufficient wages, a lack of professional development opportunities – the list goes on. So we’re aware of the problems, but what about the solutions? Where do you start? How do you know they’ll have the desired impact? In this presentation, we’re sharing more than a dozen innovative programs that organizations across the country have put in place to confront DSP workforce issues. From introducing creative recruitment strategies, to improving employee retention, and expanding recognition efforts throughout the year, you’ll leave this session with action steps that can produce results. We’ll also present data that demonstrates how investing in your DSPs can improve quality of life for people with disabilities who receive your services. This webinar is being presented by CQL and will have additional registration via Zoom here .
