Looking for a career where you can make a real difference every day? Join Mozaic (A Chapter of The Arc NY) as a Direct Support Professional (DSP) and help people with intellectual and developmental disabilities build independence, reach personal goals, and live the lives they choose.

As a DSP, you'll build meaningful relationships while supporting people with everyday activities, learning new skills, exploring their community, attending appointments and activities, and working toward goals that matter to them. You'll be there to encourage progress, celebrate accomplishments, and provide the support each person needs to feel confident and successful.

Why Join Mozaic?

At Mozaic, your work has purpose. We're a mission-driven organization dedicated to helping people with disabilities throughout the Finger Lakes region live more independent and fulfilling lives. As a DSP, you'll be more than a support person. You'll be a mentor, advocate, and source of encouragement who helps create opportunities for people to grow, connect, and thrive.

What You'll Do

No two days are exactly the same. You may help with meal preparation, personal care, household responsibilities, transportation, appointments, community activities, and other daily routines. Throughout it all, you'll encourage independence, promote choice, and help the people we support build skills and confidence.

You'll also work alongside families, healthcare professionals, and other team members to provide quality, person-centered support while ensuring each person is treated with dignity, respect, and compassion.

What We're Looking For

Candidates must have a High School Diploma or GED and a valid NYS Driver's License. Experience supporting people with developmental disabilities or working as a CNA, Home Health Aide, Caregiver, or DSP is a plus, but it isn't the only thing we're looking for.

No Experience? No Problem.
If you're compassionate, dependable, willing to learn, and passionate about helping others succeed, we want to hear from you. We'll provide the training and support you need to build your skills and make a difference.
