Person-centered staffing and program support for agencies and residential programs serving individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities.

OPWDD SERVICES

Supporting Individuals. Strengthening Provider Agencies.

My Companion Staffing is proud to support agencies and programs serving individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Our approach is rooted in dignity, choice, independence, inclusion, and person-centered support. We understand that residential and community programs require more than staff who simply show up for a shift. They need professionals who understand the responsibility of supporting individuals in environments where safety, consistency, documentation, and respect matter every day.
