“When I first joined Mainstay I kept hearing about all the wonderful things that go on. I never would have imagined myself here 7+ years later. Mainstay provides so many opportunities for the people we support and staff to do. From participating in bowling leagues to trips to the zoo, to Kennywood, and picnics. Mainstay always has something fun going on. Assisting people in their homes gives me the chance to help them on a daily basis. You get to see how much of an impact you can really make in one’s life. If you are looking for a challenging, rewarding career, Mainstay is where it’s at!”

“What started as a summer job years ago has turned into longtime employment with Mainstay’s Community Services team! One thing I love is that the people I support teach me more and more every time we’re together. Mainstay has so many opportunities for their employees to learn, grow, and challenge themselves. The team is always listening and providing ideas on ways to best support people. Mainstay is a fantastic organization to be a part of, and I have never looked back at the decision I made years ago. I would recommend working at Mainstay to anyone (and I have!).”

Elisha - Joined Mainstay in 2009

“When I first applied for a job at Mainstay, I was completely unaware of the existence of such a company. I had no prior knowledge about adults with intellectual disabilities. As I began working for Mainstay, I discovered my passion for my work and found immense joy in helping others. When the opportunity arose for me to apply for a Program Manager position, I was thrilled about the prospect of advancing within the company. One of the things that I appreciate most about Mainstay is its emphasis on growth and development. During my length of time as a Direct Support Professional and later as a Program Manager I had the privilege of overseeing the same house that I once worked when I was a DSP. My ultimate goal is to build a strong team within the houses that I oversee.”
