Job description

Paraprofessionals – Your Experience Matters!

Are you a Paraprofessional (Para) looking for a rewarding new opportunity? Your experience working with students has already given you many of the skills needed to succeed as a Behavior Technician (BT).

If you've supported students with behavioral, social, communication, or academic needs, you're already familiar with building relationships, encouraging independence, and helping children reach their goals. We provide the training and support to help you transition into the field of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA).

Why Bright Pathways ABA?

At Bright Pathways ABA, we're building something different. We believe every child is more than a diagnosis, every family is more than a service recipient, and every team member is more than a job title.

We believe meaningful progress begins with meaningful relationships. That's why we focus on partnership, connection, and individualized care—creating an environment where children, families, and our team members can all grow together. When you join Bright Pathways ABA, you're not just starting a new job; you're becoming part of a team that's committed to making autism care more personal, compassionate, and human.

What You'll Do

• Provide one-on-one ABA therapy to children in home, school, or community settings.
• Implement individualized treatment plans under the supervision of a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA).
• Help children build communication, social, behavioral, and daily living skills.
• Partner with families and your clinical team to celebrate meaningful progress.

Why Paraprofessionals Thrive Here

• Your classroom experience is highly valued.
• Ongoing mentorship and professional development.
• Supportive leadership that values collaboration and work-life balance.
• Opportunities for career growth within a mission-driven organization.
• The chance to make a lasting impact in the lives of children and their families.

If you're passionate about helping children succeed and are looking for a career where relationships matter just as much as results, we'd love to meet you. Join Bright Pathways ABA and discover how your experience as a paraprofessional can open the door to a meaningful career in ABA.
