About Creating Connections-Lawrence: Creating Connections' newest location in Lawrence will offer ABA, speech, and occupational therapy within a preschool setting to allow for peer modeling and inclusive learning opportunities. BCBAs at our Lawrence location will provide assessments and program development for children with autism and collaborate with preschool teachers and the center's Clinical Director on inclusion opportunities.

Our Philosophy:

• All children have the right to educational and therapeutic services alongside other children with whom they can learn and practice play, language, social, and school-readiness skills.
• Our employees are the backbone of our program and deserve to work in an environment where high-quality therapy is delivered in a collaborative and supportive environment.

• Demonstrate the ability to prioritize and organize workload in an efficient and productive manner in the assigned work time.
• Demonstrate ability to adapt to constant changes in schedule and environment.
• Provide quality ABA programming/procedures in a manner that takes into account the special needs of the patient (e.g., age, culture, learning ability, etc.)
