  • Support families in developing natural support systems, engaging with family members, school staff, and legal guardians.
  • Assist in the completion of initial and annual assessments and Wellness Plans as directed.
  • Seek culturally competent services to meet the diverse needs of clients and families.
  • Driving is a fundamental aspect of this role.

  • Four (4) years of experience or a combination of education and experience for those with a High School diploma/GED.
