Our client population includes members of the Arizona Division of Developmental Disabilities (DDD) with diagnoses such as Autism Spectrum Disorder, Cerebral Palsy, Down Syndrome, Epilepsy, and other long-term conditions. Experience working with this population is required. Services are provided in members’ homes , so comfort with a mobile, community-based setting is essential. The ideal candidate has feeding experience, strong time management skills, excellent interpersonal skills, and a solid understanding of occupational therapy principles and best practices. You will have the flexibility and autonomy to build your own schedule and caseload—whether you prefer part-time (as few as 15 clients) or full-time (30+ clients), the choice is yours.
