At Epic Opportunities, we are committed to understanding the impact of colonialism and educating ourselves on its injustices. Through workshops, storytelling, and meaningful connections, we aim to acknowledge the pain caused by residential schools. We stand with Indigenous peoples across Canada, taking this time to reflect on history and explore ways we can actively support reconciliation efforts. We are so grateful to partners like (Access Credit Union) who have helped make this journey of learning possible!

As Direct Support Professional Recognition Week comes to a close, I want to extend my deepest thanks to the incredible team of DSPs at Epic Opportunities.
Throughout this week, we have had the chance to reflect on the vital role our DSP’s play in supporting people to live with purpose, dignity, and community connection. Their work is rooted in compassion and driven by a belief in the value of every person—and that is something truly worth celebrating!
While this week has been dedicated to honouring their contributions, we know that their impact extends far beyond these seven days. We hope our community continues to recognize, support, and uplift this remarkable group all year long.
With sincere appreciation,
Jennifer Mann
President, Epic Opportunities Board

Making a difference in the lives of the people we support is what I love most about being a DSP. When you have form a deep connection with someone, supporting them becomes even more meaningful. It’s not only about participating in activities within the community; it’s also about uncovering opportunities to help individuals shine.
