RBT

What you'll actually do

You'll work one on one with children affected by autism, helping them learn and grow in their own homes. The job is part time or part time to full time, and your hours will vary week to week. You'll travel to clients' homes and community settings to deliver in home behavioral intervention. We train you in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) along the way, so you don't need to know it already. You get paid for your training time, and you also get paid drive time plus mileage reimbursement at the federal rate. Every step of the way, there's ongoing dedicated supervision and support to help you succeed and actually thrive in the role.

There's some physical side to this work. You'll be walking, sometimes running, standing, sitting, kneeling, stooping, crouching, crawling, twisting, reaching above your head, bending, and carrying up to 50 pounds. A lot of the play with kids happens on the floor or on child size furniture, so be ready for that. You'll need to stay alert to the safety of the child and the surroundings at all times. Quick and sudden movements can happen, and sustained physical exertion may be required for up to 45 minutes at a stretch.
