🌟 August's DSP of the Month is Stacie Kovach 🌟 Stacie has been a DSP for 26 years! She started her journey at New Horizons as a House Manager for teens. As she felt she could do more, she began fostering through Bellefaire JCB as a therapeutic foster parent. She decided to pivot from working in the juvenile system to becoming a DSP for the adult DODD system in 1990 and has been a DSP since. Her favorite thing to do with the people she serves is helping them find new things to experience. Thank you, Stacie, for everything you do! Learn more about Stacie at the link below.💙 🔗 DSP Spotlight Link: https://tr.ee/Xc7uGn #CommittedToInclusion #DSPSpotlight
