About this role
About FirstSteps
The FirstSteps Team is inspired by the belief that every child deserves the opportunity to achieve their fullest potential. To that end, our mission is twofold: to provide the best evidence-based, behavior analytic treatment to our children diagnosed with autism and related learning differences, and to offer a positive, collaborative, and dynamic work experience for our team. We are steadfastly committed to ongoing training and mentorship of our employees, always motivated to support the next generation of clinical leaders in our field and at FirstSteps. Our greatest reward is witnessing the rapid and joyful learning of our little ones and knowing that together, we are creating more happy days for the kids and families we serve.
Practice the Kind of ABA You Set Out to Provide.

At FirstSteps, you can.
We're a privately owned, clinician-led organization committed to exceptional care for children and meaningful careers for clinicians.
What Makes FirstSteps Different
Clinical work comes first. Our Program Directors typically support 12–14 children and lead a clinical team of 7–12 RBTs, giving you the time to stay close to the work that matters.
What You Won't Find Here
- Oversized caseloads
- Supervision primarily through telehealth
- Pressure to rush clinical decisions

Instead, you'll find thoughtful supervision, strong relationships, clinical autonomy, and a team invested in your growth.
