Youth served may have developmental disabilities, mental health diagnoses, trauma histories, and high-risk behaviors. This role requires structure, consistency, strong boundaries, and the ability to implement individualized behavior and support plans within a 24-hour shift-staff model.\nThis position supports teenage males with significant behavioral and mental health needs, including histories of trauma, aggression, emotional dysregulation, property destruction, elopement, and other high-risk behaviors. Successful candidates are comfortable working in a residential environment where behavioral crisis intervention, relationship-building, and consistent implementation of individualized support plans are essential.\nPlease Note: This position differs significantly from clinic-based ABA, autism center, school-based paraprofessional, or Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) roles that primarily serve young children in structured clinical settings. Applicants should have experience supporting adolescents or adults with significant behavioral, developmental, mental health, trauma-related, or forensic needs in residential, foster care, inpatient, crisis, corrections, or similar high-acuity environments. Candidates whose experience is limited to clinic-based ABA or autism treatment settings may not have the experience necessary for this role.\nKey Responsibilities\nImplement Individualized Support Plans, Behavior Support Plans, and safety protocols.\n\nProvide trauma-informed, person-centered care in alignment with 245D standards.\n\nSupport youth with activities of daily living (ADLs), emotional regulation, skill development, and community integration.\n\nUtilize de-escalation strategies and approved crisis intervention techniques.\n\nDocument services, incidents, and progress notes accurately and timely.\n\nCollaborate with guardians, case managers, therapists, and the internal clinical team.\n\nParticipate in required trainings, including CPI and Positive Supports Rule.\n\nRequired Qualifications\nMinimum two years of direct experience supporting adolescents or adults with significant behavioral, developmental, or mental health needs in a residential, foster care, inpatient, crisis, corrections, or similar high-acuity environment.\n\nExperience must include implementing behavior support strategies during behavioral crises. Clinic-based ABA, autism center, school paraprofessional, or RBT-only experience does not meet this requirement.\n\nExperience working with adolescents preferred within foster care, residential, or mental health settings.\n\nAbility to safely respond to behavioral crises.\n\nStrong documentation skills.\n\nAbility to pass a DHS background study.\n\nValid driver's license with an acceptable driving record.\n\nPreferred Qualifications\nFour years of direct experience supporting youth with high behavioral acuity.\n\nExperience implementing Behavior Support Plans, IEP-aligned strategies, or trauma-informed models.\n\nKnowledge of Minnesota 245D regulations and service recipient rights.\n\nExperience collaborating with county case managers and guardians.\n\nWhat Sets You Apart\nCalm under pressure with strong emotional regulation.\n\nStrong communication and teamwork skills.\n\nCommitted to preserving youth dignity while maintaining safety and accountability.\n\nGrowth-oriented and open to coaching and feedback.\n\nWhat BrightPath Provides\nStructured onboarding and annual 245D training.\n\nCPI certification.\n\nClear pathways for advancement.\n\nBrightPath is an equal opportunity employer committed to fostering an inclusive and diverse workforce.
