Danville Services Corporation

What Danville Services Corporation does

Danville Services Corporation is a privately held, mission-driven disability services provider founded in 1986 and headquartered in Midvale, Utah, within the Salt Lake City metropolitan area. The company operates a four-state network across Utah, Oregon, Nevada, and Arizona, employing between 1,000 and 1,200 Direct Support Professionals (DSPs) and serving adults with intellectual, developmental, and physical disabilities. Its core service portfolio comprises four integrated offerings: 24-hour residential group homes, day programs featuring community access and physical rehabilitation activities, supported employment services, and supported living assistance, with specialty capability in intensive medical and behavioral support for clients with complex needs. The company differentiates operationally through an industry-leading 4-to-1 staff-to-client ratio and a long-tenured workforce including a 30+ Year Club of veteran DSPs.

Danville's business model is entirely government-funded: revenue flows through state and federal agencies that administer Medicaid Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waivers and state developmental disability divisions, rather than via private pay or commercial insurance. The company distributes services through its own network of neighborhood-centered group homes and day program facilities, with regional offices in Midvale, Lehi, St. George, Tucson, Las Vegas, Mesquite, and Portland. Go-to-market is effectively sales-led to government payers and event-driven to recruit frontline staff, supported by active participation in National DSP Recognition Week, Special Olympics Utah, and ongoing job fairs. The disclosed technology stack is limited to operational utilities—GPS-based fleet management and the Relias third-party learning management system for mandatory staff training—and the company reports no proprietary AI, machine learning, or platform technology investments. Chris Hatton serves as CEO and Owner, having succeeded prior CEO Bill Woolston in 2020.
