Did you know that Karis Disability Services is proudly represented by over 3,000 Direct Support Professionals (DSPs) throughout Ontario and Saskatchewan? Our DSPs provide exceptional support, and we’re grateful for your commitment, skills, and expertise!

You may have noticed there are two times in the year when people typically celebrate DSP Appreciation Week – in May and September. As DSPs, you are a tremendous asset to the organization, and we are immensely thankful for your relentless hard work and commitment. While there are some smaller celebrations happening this week, moving forward, Karis will intentionally celebrate in May, expressing our gratitude and highlighting your essential role as DSPs! This decision was made earlier this year and aligns with Saskatchewan’s official DSP Appreciation Week, as well as community living month in Ontario.

DSPs, thank you for your excellent representation of Karis Disability Services and for providing the best supports to people with disabilities and their families!
