Board Certified Behavior Analyst

ABEITA AND ASSOCIATES - Behavioral Services

Unlike other BCBA positions out there, we work in day programs (operation hours 8am-3pm) & residential care homes for adults with disabilities and offer a flexible schedule, consistent hours/caseload, a hybrid work environment, a true work-life balance, AND there's no need to hassle with insurance companies.
