Known as consumer direction in New York, this long-term care model empowers people to take control of who provides their services and where.

We, along with a diverse alliance of service partners across the state, will be supporting the delivery of culturally sensitive and disability competent care to CDPAP participants. We are looking for people who share our passion for helping New Yorkers live happy, healthy, and independent lives to support CDPAP consumers and their personal assistants across a broad spectrum of services and functions.
Our culture attracts and rewards people who are compassionate, results-oriented, and driven to exceed customer expectations.
