Behavioral Health Technician (School-Based)

Career Connections Recruiting

Job Description

Job Description

Behavioral Health Technician ( School Based)

Work Location: Hershey, PA (15 minutes from Harrisburg)

Monday–Friday | 7:30 AM – 3:30 PM

Paid school breaks + Fridays off in summer

$37,280 salary + full benefits

Work directly with students in a structured, school-based autism program — with consistent hours, strong support, and no clinic burnout.

Career Connections Recruiting is partnering with a respected, mission-driven nonprofit provider to hire a School-Based Behavioral Health Technician (BHT) supporting students in a classroom setting.

Why This Role Stands Out

• $37,280 annual salary

• Consistent Monday–Friday school schedule (7:30–3:30)

• No nights, weekends, or holidays

• Paid school break weeks

• Paid Fridays off during summer (when applicable)

• Year-round stability

• Structured, classroom-based environment

• Ongoing supervision and training

• Supportive clinical and educational team

If you’re looking for meaningful work supporting students with autism — without unpredictable hours or burnout — this is a strong opportunity.

Position Overview

The Behavioral Health Technician (BHT) works directly with students with autism in a school-based setting. You’ll support behavior, communication, and social skill development using Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) strategies.

Responsibilities

• Provide direct classroom support to students

• Implement behavior plans and IEP goals

• Track and document student progress

• Support communication, social, and behavioral development

• Collaborate with teachers, Behavior Consultants, and school staff

• Participate in ongoing supervision and training

Qualifications

• High school diploma required

• Experience with children preferred (not required)

• Interest in education, psychology, behavioral health, or human services

• Patient, structured, and team-oriented

• Ability to pass required background checks and clearances

No prior ABA experience required — training provided

The organization is an Equal Opportunity Employer and is committed to creating an inclusive workplace.
