Mid-Hudson Coalition Academic Partnership with Marist College

The Mid-Hudson Coalition is a consortium of individuals and organizations working to improve the quality of services and supports for people in our communities through an ethical, highly trained, and credentialed direct support workforce. The founders of the Mid-Hudson Coalition outlined a formula for improving and strengthening the workforce. This formula established a four-prong strategy (education, agency development, informing government and the public, and self-advocacy) that still guides the MHC today.

The Mid-Hudson Coalition envisions a society where effective community services and supports throughout the lifespan are readily accessible through a highly skilled direct support professional workforce. While dozens of agencies in the Hudson Valley are affiliated with the Mid-Hudson Coalition their mission is not complete. The MHC is determined to strategically shape the future of human services and quality care through the professionalization of the Direct Support Professional workforce.
