The pandemic brought direct support professionals’ role of supporting peoples’ health and wellness to the forefront. DSPs had to slow down, take more precautions, and learn new ways to maintain health. As people recover from the pandemic, DSPs can see how what they learned and did helped support people with intellectual and developmental disabilities. DSPs got to know the people they support better and assisted them in making their own health choices. Better health and wellness often starts with small steps. A small tweak in a regular activity can make a big difference. This issue includes stories and resources relevant to DSPs.
