Webinar: Informing Workforce Development Strategies: The DSP Experience Inside and Outside the Workplace

Many people in the IDD field began their careers as direct support professionals, so they understand some of the experiences and challenges of the role. In this webinar, ‘Informing Workforce Development Strategies: The DSP Experience Inside and Outside the Workplace,’ NADSP and NCI will share data on the direct support experience both inside and outside the workplace. Dr. Jennifer Cohen will present her research on DSPs’ experiences with food and housing insecurity in New York State. The second part of the presentation will review findings from the 2023 NCI State of the Workforce Survey, covering DSP turnover, tenure, wages, benefits, and other key metrics. The webinar will conclude with a discussion on how this information can be used to inform workforce development strategies.
