We are proud to announce the recipients of the 2026 MOHR Statewide Direct Support Professional (DSP) Awards, recognizing six exceptional professionals whose dedication, creativity, and commitment are helping people with disabilities lead fuller, more connected, and more self-directed lives. Selected from nominations submitted by disability service providers across Minnesota, this year’s recipients demonstrate excellence in employment services, community engagement, person-centered support, innovation, leadership, and advocacy.
MOHR is pleased to recognize Steve Howard’s outstanding contributions with the 2026 Legacy Leader Award.
