Are you passionate, patient, and eager to help others? Would you like to work at an organization that invests in you and your personal growth?

They started out with garage sales (Now the What Not Shop) to raise funds to start a small school that would be later established as the Hope Training School. As the students grew older and graduated, they needed a new place to “go to work” and the Adult Activity Center (now Community Support Services) was created. From there, we've opened five residential homes, offer Shared Living services, and Home Supports. We remain the 3rd largest employer in the area.</span></p>\n<p><br></p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: Lato, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; font-weight: bold\">Hope Association Direct Support Professional Job Responsibilities:</span></p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-family: Lato, sans-serif;
