Job description

About Soar

Soar Autism Center is an innovative healthcare provider at the frontlines of the autism care landscape, a market with substantial unmet need and one poised for rapid growth.

Soar is advancing the standard of care in autism through our network of centers where children with autism receive life-shaping services that allow them to thrive. Specifically, we provide integrated and comprehensive services to children with autism age six and under. Our care model is focused on a specialized form of autism therapy called the Early Start Denver Model, or ESDM, one of the most research-tested approaches to Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) care, yet one of the hardest modalities for families to find. We craft individual therapy plans for the children we serve through deep collaboration with families, setting goals that are ambitious and focusing on building skills that enable children to grow into their fullest selves. We provide care in state of the art, autistic-friendly facilities, with the goal that a child's time at our centers mirrors an early childhood learning experience. We prioritize early intervention, comprehensive supportive services, and positive, developmentally-appropriate learning that meets the needs of each unique child and family.

In our three-year history, we have opened 19 centers across Colorado and Arizona, all of which have quickly reached capacity and typically run with waitlists. We are now hiring a Financial Operations Specialist to support the growing needs on our Finance team. Join us as we strive to advance the standard of care in autism therapy today!
