    Part-Time Enhanced Support Staff – Make a Meaningful Impact

    Are you experienced in supporting individuals with OCD and Autism? Do you love being part of someone’s journey toward greater independence and a fulfilling life? If so, we’d love to meet you.

    We're looking for a compassionate, creative, and engaging support professional to join a vibrant young woman’s team. This is more than a job — it’s a chance to make a real difference by helping her pursue goals like building friendships, volunteering, and enjoying her favorite pastimes in the community.

    About the Role: This is a flexible, part-time position — perfect for someone looking for meaningful work a few days a week. You’ll work 2–3 days per week, 3–6 hours per shift, supporting her both at home and out in the community. She enjoys activities like musicals, theater, social outings, and grabbing a good cup of coffee — and you’ll be right there to help her engage and enjoy.

    Your role will include:

    Providing thoughtful, positive behavioral support

    Encouraging skill-building and independence

    Supporting community engagement and social opportunities

    Collaborating on creative solutions to everyday challenges

    Being a consistent, supportive presence in her life

    What We’re Looking For:

    Experience supporting individuals with OCD, Autism, or other developmental/mental health needs

    At least 1 year of experience as a caregiver, TSS, PCA, or similar role

    Strong teaching and coaching skills — you love helping others learn and grow

    Creativity and flexibility in problem-solving

    Patience, reliability, and a genuine desire to make a difference

    Job coaching certification (CESP/ACRE) is a plus

    Preferred Education/Certifications:

    Bachelor’s degree in Psychology, Education, Special Education, Counseling, or Social Work

    OR NADD Competency-Based Certification for Dual Diagnosis IDD/MI

    OR current RBT certification

    Compensation:

    $37/hour starting rate

    Mileage reimbursed at the federal rate

    If you’re looking for a deeply rewarding, flexible part-time role where your work truly matters, we’d love to hear from you. Apply today and become a valued part of someone’s journey to a more connected, independent life.
