TITLE: Fixed Prices and the Direct Support Professional Workforce Crisis
AUTHORS: Scott Spreat
KEYWORDS: Intellectual Disability, Workforce Crisis, Direct Support Professional, Supply & Demand
JOURNAL NAME: Open Journal of Social Sciences, Vol.9 No.1, January 18, 2021
ABSTRACT: The current Direct Support Professional workforce crisis was considered from the perspective of supply/demand economic theory. It is suggested that the workforce crisis is largely caused by the inability of provider agencies to balance the demand for and supply of Direct Support Professionals by manipulating wages. Governmental fixed prices for supports and services are suggested as a primary contributing factor.
