As a Community Habilitation Specialist, you won't just be clocking in - you'll be changing lives, building relationships, and helping individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities reach their goals.

• Assisting with appointments, recreation, and personal care when needed.
• Keeping things organized with timely documentation.
• Creating a safe, respectful, and uplifting environment every day.
• Driving individuals to activities in agency vehicles.
Requirements:
• High school diploma or GED (college coursework or DSP certifications are a bonus!)
• A positive attitude, compassion, and a willingness to jump in and help
• Great communication skills and a team-player mindset
• Valid NYS driver's license and an acceptable driving record.
• Comfort with basic tech tools for documentation.
• Ability to maintain certifications like AMAP, CPR, First Aid, and PROMOTE.
Additional Requirements:
• Ability to safely lift and assist up to 70 lbs, to support individuals' mobility, personal care, transfers, and emergency needs with care and dignity.
• Join in on moderate physical activities - think walks in the park or dance parties in the living room!
