About: Sunbreak

Sunbreak Society is a name chosen intentionally for two affirming reasons:

 

The first part, “Sunbreak,” being a welcomed break from the often chaotic and tumultuous system that is arduous to navigate, frequently causing anxiety. We strive to reduce the stress by providing:

​

  • thoughtfully planned and curated pathways to access highly qualified, supported, and thoughtful DSP’s;

  • training to families and DSP’s beyond 'the minimum' required, and;

  • a wholistic approach to providing supports, knowing every family and person is uniquely different.​

 

Secondly, “Society,” comes from a conscious group of individuals who have dedicated their careers and come together in providing high-quality services that go beyond the mediocrity that has been set as acceptable and best-practice in the field of I/DD. This society sets out with the intention of proving:

​

  • that this community is worth investing in; 

  • increasing access to the world around them and;

  • building a sense of belonging, no matter the historical context.

​​​

When we humans have purpose and know our sense of belonging, we show up differently. Sunbreak Society understands this foundational principle and has developed systems, trainings, and care with this at the forefront.

Our Mission

To increase the quality of life for individuals with disabilities by increasing the quality of life for those who serve them daily. 

Our Vision
