Are you passionate about helping young children thrive? At Soar Autism Center, we’re on a mission to support children with autism by providing compassionate, play-based therapy in a supportive and collaborative environment. Our team-based model allows every child to receive the care they need to grow—and every team member the opportunity to make a lasting impact.

You’ll be part of an interdisciplinary care team, supporting therapeutic activities designed by clinicians in behavior analysis, speech therapy, and occupational therapy. This is an entry-level position, and no prior certifications are required—we’ll provide all the training and ongoing support you need.
