Location: Little Rock

Schedule: S/S 12am -9am

Starting Pay: $15:00 per hour (negotiable based on education and experience)


Why Join Us? At AEDD, we believe in empowering individuals with disabilities to improve the quality of their lives.


What You'll Do:

  • Support individuals in developing essential life skills, from health and hygiene to independent living tasks.
  • Foster a positive and respectful environment at home and in the community.
  • Assist with daily routines as outlined in the Medicaid Waiver Person-Centered Service Plan.
  • Help individuals engage with their community through activities like shopping, social events, appointments, and more.
  • Provide safe and reliable transportation using your personal vehicle (must meet AR state insurance requirements).
  • Maintain records of consumer expenses and document progress.
  • Offer valuable input during annual service planning meetings.
  • Complete required training, including CPR, First Aid, Defensive Driving, and in-service sessions.

What We're Looking For:

  • Age Requirement: 18 years or older.
  • Education & Experience: High School Diploma or GED with at least one year of relevant experience in public health, human services, or a community service agency. Alternatively, two years of verifiable experience working with individuals with developmental disabilities may qualify.
  • Driver's License & Insurance: Valid Arkansas driver's license and proof of auto liability insurance.
  • Background Check & Drug Screening: Required for all candidates.
  • Communication Skills: Ability to effectively interact with individuals and understand written instructions.

Why This Role Matters:

This is a safety-sensitive position, meaning your role directly affects the well-being of the individuals you support. We are committed to maintaining a safe, drug-free workplace to ensure the highest quality of care.


Physical Requirements:

  • Ability to stand, walk, reach, and kneel as needed.
  • Lift and move up to 25 lbs regularly, 50 lbs frequently, and 100 lbs occasionally.
