Arc Employee Wins DSP of the Year Award - Posted on 3/25/2009


The St. Louis Arc is proud to announce one of its employees has been selected for a nationally-recognized award. Annie Slay is ANCOR’s Direct Support Staff of the Year for the state of Missouri!

Annie has been with the Arc family since the early 1990’s. She currently works at the Sunnen Community Integration Program. ANCOR selected Annie for her willingness to consistently go above and beyond the call of duty when it comes to the people she supports. Noting special needs among the aging population at Sunnen CI, she requested and received training from the Alzheimer’s Association to better assist the people she supports there. We are thrilled for Annie and congratulate her on the big honor.

The St. Louis Arc is quite familiar with the ANCOR DSP award. Last year, employee Kevin Barrett received the 2008 State Award for Direct Support Professional. Kevin works at Villa Hill Off-Campus Residential Program.

The American Network of Community Options and Resources is a nonprofit trade association representing and advocating on behalf of the more than 800 private providers of services and supports for nearly 500,000 Americans with disabilities that employ over 400,000 direct support staff in 49 states and Washington, D.C.
