Behavior Technician

PLAY ABA is a small, family owned & operated ABA practice, working with toddlers and children with developmental delays due to Autism or similar disorders. We are different from most ABA companies. There are no investors, no board, and no unnecessary red tape or obstructions to providing the very best ABA services possible.
- **GENERAL DESCRIPTION**:_ Using play based activities, the BT will provide the client opportunities to practice the skills/behaviors targeted in the program. A Board Certified Behavioral Analyst (BCBA) defines the goals and works with you and the parent(s) to implement the plan.

A program typically runs for 6 months. The client is re-evaluated to measure progress and the BCBA uses this information to update the program and set additional goals as needed. We ask that BTs commit to completing a program period.**REQUIREMENTS**:
