Recognizing the Role of Direct Support Professionals Act

This bill requires the Director of the Office of Management and Budget to consider establishing a separate occupational code for direct support professionals in the Standard Occupational Classification system. The bill aims to recognize the critical role of these professionals who provide support to individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities, address labor market shortages, and improve data collection on turnover rates. If the OMB decides not to establish the code, the Director must submit a report to Congress explaining the decision.
