Our Leadership & Staff

Our Team
HSI's dedicated staff is a team of committed facilitators trained to provide person-centered learning. Their job is to help each person they serve:

  • Make informed choices
  • Work toward independence
  • Obtain personal goals
  • Become a contributing member of their community

For our staff at HSI, caring for individuals with disabilities is more than a job. It's a passion. We are on call 24-7. Our staff loves what they do and it shows in the care they provide and in the lives that they touch.

Contact us today to have one of our leadership team members speak to your organization about HSI, or working with or overcoming disabilities.
