Direct Support professional/Driver/AMAP - Residential Group Home About Daybreak Independent Services, Inc. In 2010, Daybreak Independent Services opened its doors for individuals with developmental disabilities to learn and apply their skills in a traditional work setting. Since then, Daybreak has expanded its mission to multiple locations adding both people and additional services. We serve hundreds of New Yorkers living with developmental disabilities. Partnerships with local businesses like Stew Leonard, TJ Maxx, and Marshalls have allowed the vision to grow exponentially.
