Looking for a job that's active, meaningful, and anything but boring?
If you'd rather spend your day making a difference, building relationships, and getting out in the community than sitting behind a desk, this could be the perfect fit.
Starkey is hiring Program Trainers to join our Day Program on our Wichita campus. In this role, you'll support adults with disabilities as they build independence, develop life skills, and enjoy meaningful experiences both on campus and throughout the community.
One day you may be helping someone learn a new skill, and the next you could be exploring a local museum, visiting the zoo, attending community events, enjoying a park outing, or helping individuals discover new hobbies and interests. Every day brings new opportunities to make an impact.
What You'll Do
- Support adults with disabilities in a fun, engaging day program environment
- Teach social, communication, and independent living skills
- Assist with personal care and daily living tasks as needed

- Encourage individuals to build confidence, explore interests, and connect with their community
- Work alongside a supportive team dedicated to helping individuals reach their goals
This is more than a job. It's an opportunity to mentor, encourage, and create meaningful experiences while helping others live their best lives.
