$22 - $32 per hour

One Step Forward

Job Description

Job Description

Every milestone matters, and every step forward counts.

One Step Forward is hiring an ABA Therapist to provide individualized Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) services to children in Newark and surrounding Essex County communities.

This role offers the opportunity to work directly with children while helping them build communication, social, behavioral, and daily living skills through evidence based ABA programs. We are looking for motivated professionals who are passionate about helping children make meaningful progress.

What You’ll Be Doing
  • Provide direct one on one ABA therapy sessions

  • Implement individualized treatment plans developed by a BCBA

  • Teach communication, social, adaptive, and daily living skills

  • Implement skill acquisition and behavior reduction programs

  • Utilize ABA strategies including reinforcement, prompting, shaping, and behavior intervention techniques

  • Collect accurate session data and complete detailed session notes

  • Collaborate with supervising BCBAs regarding treatment progress and goals

Why This Role Stands Out
  • Competitive pay of $22–$32 per hour based on experience

  • Consistent after school opportunities

  • Ongoing BCBA supervision and support

  • Structured ABA programs with strong clinical guidance

  • Opportunity to continue growing in the field of Applied Behavior Analysis

  • Meaningful work that creates lasting impact

What We’re Looking For
  • Experience working with children preferred

  • ABA, RBT, Behavior Technician, childcare, special education, or behavioral health experience is a plus

  • Reliable transportation

  • Strong communication and organizational skills

  • Dependable, professional, and motivated

About One Step Forward

One Step Forward provides individualized ABA therapy services throughout New Jersey. We are committed to helping children build meaningful skills while supporting our team through strong clinical supervision and collaboration.
