Board Certified Assistant Behavior Analyst
Hybrid Position - Primarily Remote with On-Site Visits
Meraki Health is seeking an experienced assistant behavior analyst to provide support to individuals and their families by providing services in Applied Behavior Analysis, function analyses and assessment, behavior acquisition and reduction procedures, and adaptive life skills.
This is a unique opportunity to do cutting edge work with dedicated support staff including SLP, OT, PT, LCSW, RD, BT, ED and 1:1 Therapy Technicians who understand and support developmental language, sensory processing strategies, emotional development, and how they impact children with special needs.

With our interpretation of their intentions, language-based strategies, emotional and sensory support, and an individualized, multi-sensory, engaging and meaningful curriculum, our kids are limitless!
