Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA)

# Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) **Part-Time | Hourly | Grand Junction, CO | Parent-Led ABA** ## About the Position We are seeking a compassionate and collaborative Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) to join our growing Colorado team in a part-time, hourly position. Our program uses a parent-led, team-based ABA model that places caregivers at the center of treatment while also utilizing Registered Behavior Technicians (RBTs) to support implementation, modeling, and skill development. In our model, the BCBA partners with caregivers to identify meaningful goals, understand behavior, develop practical strategies, and build caregiver confidence in using those strategies during everyday routines. RBTs work directly with children and families to model strategies, provide opportunities for practice, support skill acquisition, and help caregivers carry treatment strategies into daily life. The goal is not for skills to exist only during therapy sessions. We want treatment strategies to be practical enough that caregivers can use them successfully when the treatment team is not present. ## What You'll Do The BCBA will provide clinical leadership for assigned cases and work collaboratively with caregivers and RBTs. Responsibilities include: * Conduct initial and ongoing behavioral and skills assessments * Develop individualized, function-based treatment plans based on the needs and priorities of the child and family * Provide ongoing caregiver coaching and parent-led ABA services * Teach caregivers how to implement behavioral and skill-building strategies within everyday routines * Model interventions and provide supportive, practical feedback to caregivers * Develop meaningful goals related to communication, social engagement, adaptive skills, emotional and behavioral regulation, safety, independence, play, and daily living * Develop clear treatment protocols that can be implemented consistently by caregivers and RBTs * Provide clinical supervision, modeling, feedback, and direction to RBTs * Observe RBT implementation and make treatment modifications based on client response and data * Support RBTs in effectively modeling strategies for caregivers and promoting generalization across people, routines, and environments * Use naturalistic and developmentally appropriate teaching strategies whenever appropriate * Review treatment data and caregiver feedback to evaluate progress * Modify treatment strategies and goals based on client progress and changing family needs * Conduct reassessments and update treatment plans as clinically appropriate * Coordinate care with schools, medical providers, therapists, and other members of the client's treatment team when appropriate * Maintain accurate, timely, and clinically appropriate documentation * Participate in team meetings, consultation, and case collaboration as needed * Maintain services consistent with BACB ethical requirements, payer requirements, and applicable state and federal regulations ## Our Parent-Led Model **Parent-led does not mean parents do it alone.** Caregivers, RBTs, and BCBAs each have an important role on the treatment team. The BCBA develops treatment, analyzes progress, coaches caregivers, supervises RBTs, and modifies intervention based on the child's and family's needs. The RBT provides direct intervention while modeling strategies, creating opportunities for caregivers to practice, supporting skill acquisition, and helping skills generalize into everyday routines. The caregiver works collaboratively with the treatment team to identify priorities, learn strategies, practice skills, and incorporate effective supports into family life. For example, an RBT may model how to create communication opportunities during play, while the BCBA coaches the caregiver on how to use the same strategy during meals, getting dressed, community outings, or sibling interactions. This collaborative approach allows children to receive direct support while also building the care
