Dan O'Brien
Founder & CEO
Special Needs Services, LLC was formed in October of 2007 by Karen and Dan O'Brien. The company started with one client referral from the Division of Developmental Disabilities, which was Karen's niece, who has William's Syndrome. By the end of 2008 SNS was providing HCBS services to 20 Division Members with 20 Qualified Care Providers. In November 2014, SNS expanded into Employment Services for Division Members 16 years of age and older. Our goal is to integrate our members into the community through gainful employment in the hopes of facilitating a more independent lifestyle. In December 2019, we moved into our multi-activity workspace called "Studio Works", which gives individuals with developmental disabilities a place to work and have fun!
