3.Strengthening the working relationships and partnerships between direct support professionals, self-advocates, and other consumer groups and families.
4.Promote systems reform which provides incentives for educational experiences, increased compensation, and access to career pathways for direct support professionals through the promotion of policy initiatives (e.g., legislation, funding, practices).
