• Make a Difference – Support inclusive practices and neurodiverse-friendly approaches that help children thrive.

• Build Meaningful Relationships – Become a trusted mentor, supporting educators to create inclusive, thriving classrooms.

• A team player who is motivated, proactive, and adaptable
• Holds a Driver’s License and has access to a car

What’s in It for You?

🎯 Professional Growth – Expand your skills beyond therapy into coaching, presenting and building communities.
