Our story
Dirigo Support Professionals LLC was founded in 2020 by Samuel Nahimana and associates. During this time, Samuel was busy working as a senior manager for a large Maine-based residential service provider but was also taking note of the many areas of service delivery he would like to improve upon. It was with these goals in mind, fueled by a desire to work with a team of like-minded professionals, that DSP was born.
DSP began providing services in 2022 and is quickly growing to become Maine’s leader in the provision of person-centered services and support for individuals with intellectual disabilities and autism spectrum disorder. Founded on the core values of service, teamwork, and empowering each individual to succeed, DSP is ready to serve.
