    Meet Alice, one of our Supported Living DSPs. Alice has been with Wabash Center for seven years, and tells us that her favorite part of her job is the people- both the individuals in the home she works at, and her coworkers. "You get more from individuals that what you give them" she says. Her mother, a special education teacher, taught her from a young age that this line of work is more than just a job- it requires special people that are patient, nurturing, and dedicated. Supported Living DSPs are a crucial piece of our mission, ensuring that people of all abilities have a safe and affordable place to live at any age.
