DSP Appreciation Week 2025 at IAHD September 12, 2025
On September 11, IAHD celebrated Direct Support Professionals Recognition Week 2025 with a DSP Appreciation Party. During this annual event, DSPs and other IAHD staff spent the afternoon in Tibbetts Brooks Park in Yonkers, NY, dancing, enjoying meals from local food trucks, winning raffle prizes, playing games, and spending time with one another.
Thank you to everyone who participated in making this event so special, including IAHD Board members Matt Kiamie, Michael Agovino, and Paddy Reynolds, as well as the food trucks that provided everyone with a delicious meal including:
Westchester Burger
El Patio Food Truck
876 Jerk
On behalf of the entire IAHD community, the IAHD Champions want to say thank you to all our DSPs for their commitment to both IAHD and the people we support.
There is no IAHD without you!
