A big round of applause for the amazing staff who just graduated from our nationally accredited Direct Support Professional (DSP) Certification Program! This program helps to professionalize their vital role and empowers them to advance their careers. Special thanks to John Martinez from the United States Department of Labor's Apprenticeship Program, who joined our celebration and has been instrumental in this program's success. Our DSPs are the lifeblood of Bancroft. Their commitment and empathy have a profound impact on the individuals we support. Here's what some recent graduates had to say about the program: * It has helped me be a better person and human. * The program is a great refresher for what you already know, and it will also completely change how you think about your work. * I've been able to help my team with what I've learned. * It made me a better advocate for the individuals I support. We're incredibly proud of these heroes who choose to make a difference every single day! #DSPCertification #ThankYouDSPs #MakingADifference #Proud #ProfessionalDevelopment
