*Our Approach at CAS*
At Community Autism Services (CAS), we know that great clinicians don't always start full-time-and that's okay. Our part-time home and community roles are designed to provide meaningful experience, strong support, and a clear pathway to increased hours as families and schedules align.
We practice within an assent-based, child-centered ABA model and invest in every team member through training, mentorship, and structured clinical oversight.
