Why Work for Behavior Independence
Collaborative Culture
Whether you are an administrator, BCBA or a brand new RBT, we strive to create a collaborative culture among all staff. This means that if you have an idea or want to share your thoughts on how we are doing and what we can do better, we want to hear it. Not only do we want to hear it but we work with our team to implement these new ideas. Everyone should feel heard.
Ownership Mentality
In an Ownership culture, employees share in the personal desire to see and ensure success. Employees are given opportunities to oversee, start, or take part in different programs or areas of the company in order to give them a sense of ownership. These are your projects and their success or failure is reflective of your own desire and hard work, along with your willingness to collaborate with your team.
Family First…. ALWAYS
We serve families first and foremost, but our team cannot serve our families at their fullest if their own families are struggling. This is why we have created a family friendly environment that allows you to take care of your family while performing your best at work. We don’t believe you should ever have to apologize to your boss for taking care of your family.
Military Friendly
Being surrounded by Military bases and serving a large number of military families, we pride ourselves on being military friendly. Both owners, come from being military spouses and we know the struggle of trying to find quality and fulfilling careers with a sporadic resume. That is why Behavior Independence sees military affiliation as a strength and we welcome all military affiliated individuals to join our team.
Community Impact
As a company we are working towards making a substantial impact in the lives of the families in our community. ABA Therapy allows us a glimpse into the family unit and the needs and stresses that are found there. We want to help navigate those needs, where to find support, and how to help manage those stressors. As we grow as a company we will take on new programs to add to our services that directly align with our goal to better support the family as a whole in our community.
We all have a Niche
We want to help each of our team members find their niche… what inspires them…. what are they naturally drawn to. We want our team to be passionate and continuously striving to better themselves. This is where finding your niche comes in. Once you find that thing that you are truly passionate for and align it to our company mission we can make a real difference.
