What are the responsibilities and job description for the BCBA (Westerville, OH) position at Hopebridge, LLC?
Description
At Hopebridge, we are a mission-based organization focused on ensuring that every child with autism has the opportunity to live their best life. We believe "autism" defines a disorder, not a person.
Hopebridge provides children with autism in under-resourced areas with the powerful, evidence-based treatment they were once unable to access. We're an ambitious team working to change the landscape of autism care and to ensure every family, everywhere, has access to the highest quality ABA therapy.
To provide the most ethical and impactful ABA therapy, we build our teams with curious, research-minded, and passionate professionals. We keep our caseloads small so that you can deliver the child-centered therapy that you and your clients deserve.
The world of ABA and our understanding of autism are constantly evolving, and so are we. We invite you to work with us to impact the lives of children and families in the communities that need you most.
