People, Incorporated is a human service Agency serving the Southcoast community, including the Greater Fall River, New Bedford, and Taunton areas. As a partnership of specialized, integrated programs, we provide unique opportunities to people with life challenges. Since our inception in 1968, we have been one of the largest providers of supports and services to people of all abilities in the community. Let People, Incorporated be Your Path to Opportunity!

SUMMARY: Under the supervision of the Early Education Site Administrator, the Clinician will monitor Positive Behavior Supports and Behavior Services that assist children in the Early Learning Centers. The children may be typically developing or present with developmental disabilities, social/emotional needs, and/or mental health diagnoses. The Clinician will assist the children in acquiring, retaining, and improving the skills necessary to function successfully in the school setting.

A substantial portion of the Clinician’s work time will be spent in classrooms, working directly with students and providing hands-on support, modeling, and coaching to classroom staff. Classroom observation and active implementation of behavior supports are core responsibilities alongside assessment, plan development, and documentation. The Clinician will also work alongside the agency’s Clinical Supports Supervisor to coordinate clinical services and support classroom staff in implementing effective interventions.
