Job Description

 

We deliver exceptional service by hiring extraordinary talent!

 

We are looking for a part-time PRN Direct Support Professional that is passionate about helping others and wants to make a difference in the lives of individuals with developmental disabilities.

About Us

LittleStar ABA Therapy is a non-profit organization that has been providing ABA therapy for over 20-years. We were the first ABA center in the state of Indiana. In effort to further assist families with children with developmental disabilities, in 2015, we expanded services to include respite and Participant Assistance and Care (PAC) through the Family Support Waiver program.

Many families are looking for services late afternoon to early evening and on the weekends, but there is a growing need for services during the work week (Monday through Friday 7a-5p) as well.
