Job description

Are you passionate about helping young children thrive? At Soar Autism Center , we're on a mission to support children with autism by providing compassionate, play-based therapy in a supportive and collaborative environment. Our team-based model allows every child to receive the care they need to grow-and every team member the opportunity to make a lasting impact.

As a Youth Program Specialist , you'll work directly with children between the ages of 2 and 6 who have been diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). You'll be part of an interdisciplinary care team, supporting therapeutic activities designed by clinicians in behavior analysis, speech therapy, and occupational therapy. This is an entry-level position, and no prior certifications are required-we'll provide all the training and ongoing support you need.

Who Should Apply?

This role could be a great fit if you :

  • Are a recent college graduate in psychology, child development, education, or a related field and are looking to build hands-on experience
  • Have previous experience working with kids-whether as a preschool teacher, youth mentor, camp counselor, childcare worker, or similar
  • Have a background in healthcare roles that involve children or behavioral support (like a behavioral tech or child life specialist)
  • Are exploring a career change into mission-driven work that supports families and young children

What You'll Do

  • Work one-on-one with children in a clinic setting to help them build developmental and communication skills
  • Follow individualized care plans crafted by clinical experts and support children during therapeutic sessions
  • Foster a safe, engaging, and encouraging environment that supports each child's progress
  • Collaborate with a team of therapists and clinicians to ensure a consistent and holistic approach to care
  • What You Bring

  • Experience working with children (ages 2-6 preferred), either professionally or in structured volunteer settings
  • Reliable communication skills and comfort interacting with families and care teams
  • Willingness to learn new therapeutic techniques and work in a fast-paced environment
  • Ability to meet physical activity demands : kneeling, lifting up to 50 lbs., and being active and mobile throughout the day
  • Reliable transportation to attend training and work at your assigned clinic location
  • Perks & Benefits

  • $21.00 - $28.00 / hour with regular bonus and promotion opportunities.
  • The initial offer hourly pay will be between $21.00 - $22.50. All staff members are considered every 3 months for a raise or promotion
  • Comprehensive health coverage : medical, dental, and vision plans
  • Tuition reimbursement and student loan repayment options
  • 401(k) plan after your first year with Soar
  • Career pathways into behavior analysis, therapy, education, and youth development
  • A guaranteed minimum of 30 hours per week for full-time staff
  • A purpose-driven culture with a strong sense of team and impact
  • Applications for this Behavior Technician position will be accepted on a rolling deadline.
