Who We Are

Founded in 1973 by parents seeking better opportunities for their adult children with disabilities, TURN Community Services has grown to support more than 600 individuals across Utah-from Brigham City to St. George. We offer a wide range of services including residential programs, day programs, supported employment, art centers, and summer camps.

Our mission is simple: to TURN dreams into reality. That commitment extends not only to the individuals we serve, but also to our employees. We foster a supportive, team-oriented environment where people are valued, encouraged, and empowered to grow.

Who We're Looking For

We're seeking individuals who are:

  • 18 years or older
  • Has good vibes: patient, kind, and dependable
  • Has the ability to keep things professional while still being human
  • Strong communicators with good interpersonal skills
  • Flexible, calm under pressure, and team-oriented

  • Valid driver's license
  • Reliable personal vehicle with the ability to transport individuals when needed
  • Ability to drive larger vehicles for some positions

Most importantly, you have a genuine passion for supporting individuals with developmental disabilities.

NO EXPERIENCE? TOTALLY FINE. WE TRAIN YOU.

What You'll Do

As a DSP, your role will vary depending on the program, but your impact will always be significant.

Day Program DSPs (weekday, daytime hours): You'll support individuals in developing life skills and independence through activities such as self-care, hygiene, arts and crafts, vocational training, and community engagement. You'll help individuals build social skills, manage behaviors, and participate meaningfully in their daily routines. Accurate documentation and attention to health and safety are key parts of your role.

Residential DSPs (Early mornings, afternoons, evenings, weekends, overnights): You'll assist individuals in their homes with daily living activities including meal preparation, medication support, hygiene, transportation, and housekeeping. You'll also help teach important life skills such as budgeting, relationship-building, and decision-making. By modeling positive behaviors and offering consistent support, you empower individuals to live as independently as possible.

In both settings, you'll serve as a mentor, advocate, and role model-helping individuals build confidence, develop skills, and experience a higher quality of life.

Day Program Schedules Currently Available
