• Lead clinical programming from intake through discharge, including pre-admission consultation, functional assessment, positive behavior support plan, and function communication skill development, intensive caregiver training, and post-discharge home and school consultation.

  What is the STAIRS program?
  The BCBA will help shape, promote and implement our new STAIRS (Short-Term Autism Intensive Residential Services) program. The STAIRS program provides intensive autism-specific treatment for children ages 6 to 17 with severe behavioral challenges and skills deficits that have not responded to treatment in traditional community-based or residential settings. The program provides positive behavioral interventions and supports in a compassionate, trauma-sensitive treatment environment. The continuum of care begins with a comprehensive, functional behavioral assessment of the individual, followed by intensive, clinical services for a period of three to six months on the Devereux League City campus, and concludes with discharge and after-care service planning. Our team of professionals includes a Board Certified Behavioral Analyst (BCBA), clinician, child psychiatrist, special education teacher, nurses, speech-language therapist, residential unit supervisor, and direct care providers.
  Job duties: Devereux Texas is committed to providing high-quality evidence-based treatment and supporting our team through collaboration and innovation. The BCBA will be responsible for conducting appropriate assessments, designing and modifying function-based interventions, and skill acquisition treatment plans.
