Behavior Technician (BT) – Manorville, NY 11949

About Achievement Behavior Services (ABS):

We are an agency founded ten years ago, in 2015, by dedicated BCBAs and LCSWs. We provide in-home/in-community ABA therapeutic services to support children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and their families. Our approach uses Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) to help children improve communication, adaptability, resilience, and independence.

• A competitive hourly starting rate based on qualifications and credentials (potential starting rates between $22 and $32 per hour).
• Flexible PART-TIME, consistent weekly schedule: after school and potential weekends based on family availability.
• Collaborative work with BCBA-level leaders in our ABA Professionals Network.
• Opportunities to pursue additional credentials:
  Registered Behavior Technician (RBT).
• Personalized training and supervision from a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA).

In the role of a Behavior Technician, you will work directly, one-on-one with the child in their natural home environment. You will be supported by a lead BCBA while you implement an individualized Behavior Intervention Plan (BIP) to help the student improve communication, focus, and adaptable behaviors.

• Engage in rapport building and use creative approaches to help the student communicate needs, wants, and feelings.
• Measure, assess, and document skill acquisition and progress on the BIP.
• Provide 1:1 goal-oriented in-home direct service using ABA approaches (e.g., discrete trial teaching, prompting, modeling, redirection, reinforcements, reward systems).
• Maintain thorough session-to-session documentation, data analysis, and billing.
• Engage with clinical direction and receive feedback from BCBA supervisors.
• Communicate effectively and respectfully with clients or students, caregivers, supervisors, and coworkers.
