Requirements

• Long-term commitment preferred
• Warm, patient, and reliable personality
• Experience with autism or openness to working with children on the autism spectrum (ABA experience is a plus)
• Valid driver’s license and reliable personal vehicle required
• Parking provided by the family
• Authorized to work in the U.S.
• 3–5 professional references required

Upon submitting this form, you will be considered for any suitable positions, so there is no need to complete multiple applications.
