Shivoo partners with CUNY on training program
Shivoo, a first-of-its-kind digital staffing platform helping families find caregivers for children and adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities (“IDD”), announces a partnership with Kingsborough Community College, a Brooklyn-based CUNY school, and its newly minted Direct Service Professional (DSP) training program. As a partner, Shivoo will share information about the CUNY program with the platform’s registered staff, currently comprising approximately 1,500 caregivers throughout New York State, including the greater New York Metro area. One co-founder worked as self-direction broker, and understands how important it is for families to feel confident their loved ones are properly being helped.

And people aspiring to become caregiving staff will now have access to a fully vetted curriculum at a city college.
