Last week, we wrapped up Direct Support Professionals (DSP) Recognition Week. What better way to celebrate than by shining a spotlight on the amazing Clara Braun, one of our rockstar DSPs at Easterseals NJ! 🌟 She’s been rocking this field since 2008, when a friend referred her to an agency serving individuals with autism. “At first, I didn’t think this would be my career, but it soon became my calling,” she shared. 💫 Clara joined our team in 2022 (though she worked with us before!) and works her magic in our Day Habilitation Without Walls program. Why does Clara love Easterseals? “We’ve got an incredible team! I've felt supported through personal challenges and am grateful for the energy of my manager, coworkers, and the consumers we serve!” ❤️ #DSPWeek #EastersealsNJ #DayHabilitation #DirectSupportProfessionals #CareWithHeart
