Inclusive Technology Program Assistant

Project Overview

We are building and scaling an innovative community app designed to support individuals with autism and other intellectual and developmental disabilities, along with their families and staff. The app brings people together in one safe, engaging digital space to access resources, learn skills, connect socially, and get real support. This role is a hands-on opportunity to be the primary champion of the app.

You will help drive adoption, improve the user experience, and directly shape how the platform grows and evolves.

Why This Is Exciting

You will sit at the center of a real-world, mission-driven tech project that blends community building, accessibility, and innovation. You will work closely with members, families, and professionals, troubleshoot real issues, add meaningful content, and influence product decisions. This is not passive observation. You will be trusted with responsibility, visibility, and impact, while gaining experience in product management, user support, content moderation, and grant research.
