Overview

Empowering Independence. Upholding Dignity.

At DABS, Inc., we provide comprehensive skills training and supported living services to adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Since 2005, we've been empowering individuals to lead more independent lives—through advocacy, innovation, and unwavering commitment. We believe in showing up—especially when things get hard. Dignity is our guiding principle, and as demand for our services grows, so does our resolve to ensure every person we serve is respected, supported, and given the opportunity to thrive.

Join Us as a Skills Instructor

  • Actively engage clients to encourage healthy socialization and positive interactions with peers, family, and the wider community.
  • Maintain accurate, professional documentation and records of client progress, incidents, and administrative requirements (e.g., case notes, shift logs).

Qualifications

  • A caring heart and a commitment to helping others live with dignity and independence.
  • Experience or a strong willingness to learn and implement behavioral intervention techniques and structured support plans.
