Social Skills Trainer

Potential on the Rise is seeking energetic and compassionate Social Skills Trainers to provide one-on-one support for children with autism and developmental differences.

Overview

Our trainers assist children in developing communication, self-assurance, and social interaction abilities through play, games, and activities in real-world settings. This role is not clinic-based. Sessions take place in homes, parks, and community locations, allowing children to practice skills in natural environments. If you enjoy working with children and are looking for a meaningful, active, and fulfilling job, this position could be an excellent match.

  • Experience with children is preferred (childcare, camps, youth programs, etc.)
  • Reliable vehicle and valid driver’s license
  • Comfortable working in homes and community environments
  • Strong communication skills
  • CPR and First Aid certification (or willingness to obtain)
