Job Description
We are seeking an independent, ambitious, and passionate full time SLP who specializes or has an interest in Autism and other developmental disabilities. Our program is in the community of Ocean Beach in San Diego, California (we are 3 blocks from the beach!). We are a non-public school with 60 students with moderate/severe disabilities.
Our program is designed to serve and help each individual student succeed, with half of their days spent out in the community targeting functional academics, language, and social skills. Our dynamic multi-disciplinary approach, intimate classroom size, community support, and great location have helped our program grow consistently throughout the past 15 years.
This job requires independence, creativity, self-initiative, and teamwork. Many of our students use AAC (TouchChat/Proloquo) to augment their language skills across all settings. Our school allows for a non-traditional therapy approach, focusing on real world communication. We emphasize functional language and training staff/family how to implement and generalize language across all environments.
This SLP position collaborates with credentialed teachers, occupational therapists, and BCBA’s to promote student success in a caring and fun environment. Our program follows a traditional academic school year calendar (September - June) with 7 additional weeks in the summer for our extended school year (July-Aug). This schedule offers 150 days of time off scattered throughout the year.
We offer medical, dental, vision, 401K, a loan repayment program and other insurance options. We also offer PTO, which begins accruing on your first day and discounts with various companies.
Candidates MUST have an ASHA Certificate of Clinical Competence and a California state-issued license in Speech-Language Pathology. To learn more about our program, please visit our website at pioneerprograms.org
