International Journal: Celebrating Our 100th Issue
The Journal began as a result of a conversation between Dave and Channel, the assistant director of clinical services at Vita. Believe it or not, this is the 100th issue of the Journal. We want to celebrate by looking back at a few milestones in the life of the Journal and then present you with a few quotes from random issues that have been published in the past.
The International Journal for Direct Support Professionals contains easy to-read, practical articles for Direct Support Professionals on a variety of topics that are pertinent to their role in supporting people with intellectual disabilities.
