Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) needed in Massachusetts

Position is 100% remote, though clinical roles must reside in the state where services are provided.

Our mission is to empower families of neurodivergent children (any child with suspected Autism Spectrum Disorder, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, Down Syndrome, learning disabilities and intellectual disabilities) experiencing learning and/or development delays through our whole-family engagement model, Family Support Program (FSP).  In collaboration with the LEGO Foundation, the FSP empowers parents and caregivers using a play-based approach to engage their child in learning and skill acquisition, promoting growth and achievement of key developmental milestones.  

Parents/Caregivers work with their assigned clinician to assess the needs of the child and family, crafting an individualized Family Support Plan based on assessed needs. Learning resources utilized within the Family Support Plan are customized according to the child’s specific needs, and the resources are delivered directly to the home, with training and progress overseen by the family’s clinician. Our Family Support Program starts at the pre-diagnosis stage and continues with children post-diagnosis (typically children 3-12 years old), with the assigned clinician supporting the family through their journey.
