This is a hands‑on behavioral health position. Many clients receive ABA services because they engage in behaviors that interfere with learning, safety, relationships, or independence. Behavior Technicians should expect to work with individuals who may exhibit:
- Elopement (running away)
- Tantrums
- Aggression, including hitting, pushing, pinching, scratching, kicking, or biting
- Property destruction
- Self-injurious behavior
- Refusal or non‑compliant behaviors
- Emotional regulation challenges
The goal of ABA is not to punish behavior but to teach meaningful replacement skills that help individuals communicate effectively, achieve greater independence, and experience a better quality of life.
Successful Behavior Technicians are typically individuals who:
- Remain patient and composed during challenging situations and can respond professionally when clients engage in behaviors such as tantrums, aggression, or emotional dysregulation.
- Enjoy working directly with people and making a meaningful impact by helping individuals develop communication, social, behavioral, and independent living skills.
- Are coachable and open to feedback, recognizing that ongoing training, supervision, and skill development are essential components of the role.
- Are active, dependable, and adaptable, with the ability to work in dynamic environments while maintaining professionalism, consistency, and attention to client safety.
- Frequent standing, walking, bending, kneeling, and sitting on the floor
- Ability to move quickly to maintain client safety
- Working in homes, schools, clinics, and community settings
- Participation in role‑play and hands‑on training activities

- New Hire Orientation
- HIPAA Training
- Introduction to ABA
- Reinforcement, Prompting, and Teaching Strategies
- Skill Acquisition and Behavior Reduction Procedures
- Data Collection and Documentation
