We are currently looking for a compassionate and organized Program Specialist who wants to make a meaningful difference in the lives of adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities. We are dedicated to our clients; therefore, the client list is smaller to allow for more individual time.  You will have the time and relationship with the clients to make a difference in their lives, by focusing on one position.   

This role is perfect for someone who enjoys working closely with people, staying organized, and helping a team succeed. The Program Specialist helps guide Individual Support Plans (ISPs), supports staff, and works alongside families and community partners to ensure each person receives thoughtful, person-centered care.

  • Helping complete assessments and develop Individual Support Plans (ISPs)

  • Leading plan meetings and updating goals as needs change

  • Tracking progress and celebrating growth

  • Keeping records and documentation organized and up to date

  • Communicating openly with families, staff, and team members

  • Training and supporting Direct Support Professionals

  • Reviewing documentation to ensure quality and consistency

  • Assisting with medical appointments and health record updates

  • Supporting medication documentation and processes

  • Encouraging meaningful community involvement and activities

  • Researching new opportunities and resources for individuals

  • Helping during challenging situations with calm, supportive leadership

  • Pitching in when extra support is needed

What We’re Looking For

  • Experience working with individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities

  • A caring, positive, and team-oriented attitude

  • Strong communication and organizational skills

  • Someone who enjoys leadership but also values collaboration

  • A commitment to person-centered support

Why You’ll Love Working Here

  • A supportive, family-like team culture

  • Meaningful work you can feel proud of

  • Opportunities for growth and leadership

  • The chance to truly impact someone’s life every day

Qualification

• Master’s degree and 1 year of direct experience supporting individuals with ID/A

• Bachelor’s degree and 2 years of direct experience

• Associate degree or 60 college credits and 4 years of direct experience

*CI (Certified Investigator) (Preferred)

*Med. Administrator (Train the Trainer) (Preferred)

* HRST Ratings Certified (optional)

If you’re passionate about helping others and want to be part of a team that values compassion and teamwork, we’d love to hear from you.
