What are the responsibilities and job description for the BCBA (Center-based in Providence & Portsmouth, RI) position at Paper Crown Preschool?
Paper Crown Autism Therapy Center is looking for a compassionate, creative BCBA to join our growing team!
Our Portsmouth & Providence centers provide play-based, individualized ABA therapy for young children on the autism spectrum, with a unique integrated model that gives children opportunities to learn, play, and build relationships alongside their neurotypical preschool peers.
We’re looking for a BCBA who believes therapy should be progressive, neurodiversity-affirming, and child-led, and who enjoys collaborating with families, RBTs, teachers, and other professionals to help children thrive.
What You’ll Do:
- Develop and oversee individualized treatment plans at both our Providence & Portsmouth locations - hours per week at each location are contingent on caseload needs.
- Conduct assessments and analyze client progress
- Supervise, train, and support RBTs/BTs
- Provide parent training and family support
- Collaborate with fellow BCBAs to ensure consistent supervision and treatment
- Collaborate with our preschool team to promote communication, social skills, independence, and school readiness
- Help create a positive clinical culture where both children and staff feel supported
What We’re Looking For:
- Current BCBA certification
- Experience working with young children with autism in a center-based setting
- Strong clinical, communication, and leadership skills
- A collaborative, progressive, and compassionate approach to ABA
- Someone who values play, connection, inclusion, and celebrating each child’s individual strengths
Why You'll Love Working Here:
- BCBAs with young children receive FREE preschool tuition for their child at Paper Crown — a benefit valued at approximately $20,000 per year. It’s one of the ways we support our team not only as professionals, but as working parents, too.
- Small caseloads with ongoing support
- Three weeks of paid time off
- Competitive salary
- Health & dental insurance
- 401k eligibility
