We seek a dynamic Program Director and Teacher to to lead our educational programs while providing direct instruction and support to students and families learning text-based multimodal communication approaches.

Our Commitment

REV values disability as a natural variation of the human condition and does not use compliance-driven models. We are committed to learning from autistic individuals themselves about best practices for support. We presume competence in every individual, believing that everyone has the ability to think, learn, and understand - regardless of how they communicate. While we do not align with any single methodology, we will build upon your existing training to develop individualized approaches for each student.
