At SPARKS, no two individuals - and no two journeys - are exactly alike. As a family-run business, we believe meaningful support begins with truly knowing the people we serve: understanding their personalities, interests, strengths, goals, routines, and the things that bring them joy. That personal connection allows us to provide care and experiences that feel intentional, individualized, and genuinely meaningful.
Our commitment is to provide compassionate, consistent support that helps each person feel valued, encouraged, and connected. We strive to create opportunities that build confidence, independence, friendships, community involvement, and a true sense of belonging. Whether through a new experience, a personal accomplishment, a meaningful relationship, or simply a day filled with laughter, we want every individual to know they are supported by people who truly care.
About our team
SPARKS has been blessed with an incredible team of Direct Support Professionals. With years of experience in the field and a genuine dedication to the individuals they serve, the compassion, consistency, and effort they bring each day is nothing short of inspiring.
Every member of our team receives extensive annual training to help ensure the highest level of care and support. Training includes CPR/First Aid, Medication Administration, DODD-specific certifications, behavioral support planning, and much more. We believe exceptional services begin with exceptional people—and we are incredibly proud of the team behind SPARKS.
