  • Provide transportation using your own vehicle: Safely transport individuals to appointments, activities, and community outings as needed. Mileage reimbursement is provided.
  • Stay flexible: Work at different sites and with individuals who have unique needs-every day is different!

What Makes You a Great Fit

  • Caring, dependable, and passionate about helping others.
  • Strong communication and organizational skills.
  • Comfortable with physical tasks (lifting up to 50 lbs, bending, reaching).
  • Valid NYS driver's license and clean driving record.
  • High School diploma or GED.
  • Experience with individuals with developmental disabilities (1 year preferred, or 6 months with specialized training).
  • Willing to complete certifications like First Aid/CPR and Medication Administration

Why Join Us?
