Last week was Direct Support Professional Appreciation week! We're grateful for our incredible DSP community who deliver most of the community-based services funded by Issue 35, the Developmental Disabilities Services Levy.
Yesterday, we celebrated all the amazing direct support professionals in Hamilton County! These dedicated DSPs are critical to supporting people with disabilities, and we are so appreciative of all they do!

Jenny Arena (forgive me if you’re on X) is the Stepping Stones event chair for “Bloom,” the org’s largest annual fundraiser. And Sept. 7 is the 20th anniversary edition of Bloom. The event, which is Bond-themed this year, in Madisonville is going to be very special. More in story
Leaving LA for @fccincinnati was a leap of faith for Kenny Arena (@KsArena14) in part because of concerns about uprooting 10yo son Holden, who has autism.
Local org, @SSOhioInc, helped the Arenas transition smoothly. They want you to know what that meant: cincinnati.com/story/sports/…
