As a Day Program Activities Assistant, your direct care and instruction will support adults with intellectual disabilities, developmental disabilities or behavioral challenges to achieve goals, overcome barriers, and build life skills in a Day Program or Day Habilitation setting.

Your work may focus on developmental skill training in self care, self-direction, independent living skills, maintaining hygiene, toileting or first aid.

Our Day Program positions offer great weekday 8 am - 4pm schedules and emphasize team work, socialization and relationship building.
