About Masada

Our story began in 1989 when, under the name Masada Homes, we opened an innovative group home program for at-risk youth and began an enduring partnership with Los Angeles County.

More than three decades later, Masada has evolved into a comprehensive community mental health and social service agency whose mission is to enhance the lives of children, youth, families, and adults while contributing to the overall well-being of communities.

Masada has long been recognized as a leader in delivering culturally-affirming, evidence-based services in the county’s highest-need communities. With an annual budget of $25+ million, a diverse and highly respected leadership team, and a skilled workforce of 200+ dedicated individuals, we serve more than 1,600 children and families annually. Our seven offices serve as community hubs for delivering onsite, in-home, school-based, and telehealth services. 

Masada has employed OT services as a part of the continuum of care since its inception. The board of directors and Masada leadership team has highlighted Occupational Therapy within the 5 year strategic plan as an area for aggressive expansion to better serve the needs of our community. Masada’s Occupational Therapy Department has grown from 1 to 11 OT staff and is approved for continued growth.

Position Summary

The Director of Occupational Therapy will lead Masada’s growing Occupational Therapy Department maintaining current programs while creatively seeking to expand into new areas of treatment. This leadership role is pivotal in ensuring the provision of high-quality occupational therapy services to clients while nurturing the development of staff and students. The Director will work collaboratively with agency leadership to align departmental goals with the organization’s overall strategic vision.
