Job Overview
At Hazel Grace Center for Autism (hazelgracecenterforautism.com), we are dedicated to providing compassionate, high-quality, and life-changing ABA therapy to children on the autism spectrum. As a brand-new clinic in the heart of New London, we pride ourselves on building a supportive, collaborative, and family-centered environment. Skip the long commute —join a local team where your voice matters, your growth is supported, and you can make a direct impact right here in our community.

What We Offer
- Financial Stability: with our clinic setting, you'll have a reliable schedule with no travel.
- Paid Training and Certification: we pay for your 40 hour RBT training, competency assessment, and exam fee. Once you become an RBT, you'll also receive a pay increase!
- Paid Time Off: our PTO packages will help to make sure you get the time you need to rest and recharge.
- Sick Leave: we believe sick time shouldn't eat away at your PTO so at Hazel Grace, we offer you sick days in addition to PTO to keep you and our clinic healthy and safe.
- Retirement Security: we are dedicated to helping you plan for the future by offering a 401(k) plan with company match
- Mentorship: You will have direct, hands-on guidance and supervision from the company owner and sole BCBA.

- Adhere strictly to professional ethical standards outlined by the Professional and Ethical Compliance Code for Behavior Analysts while delivering direct behavioral therapy.
What We're Looking For
- Education: High school diploma or equivalent required (Bachelor’s degree in psychology, education, or related field is a plus).
- Experience: Previous experience working with children (In-home or center-based ABA, daycare, camp counselor, teaching assistant) is highly preferred, but not required.
- Credentials: Active RBT certification is a major plus, but we are fully equipped to train the right candidate.
- Requirements: Ability to pass a comprehensive background check and reliable transportation to our New London clinic.
