Job Description

To be an assistant (Direct Support Professional) is first and foremost about being a friend. It is about sharing a home, sharing meals, sharing spirituality, and sharing the joys and sorrows of daily life. Assistants live and serve alongside people with intellectual disabilities (Core Members) to build an intentional, mutually supportive community where every member is celebrated for their unique gifts, given a voice, and motivated toward a greater purpose. While committed to this mission, Assistants are also trained as qualified caregivers to provide direct support for Core members in activities of daily living, financial management, medical care, licensing documentation, and transportation. Assistants also help to maintain the homes by preparing meals, tending the gardens, cleaning common spaces, and doing other household tasks. This creates a distinct, formative experience in each person's story that extends the L'Arche message of both advocacy and hope into the larger community.

This position is a great opportunity to get into the healthcare field. Experience is preferred, but not required. We provide the training and tools that you need to be successful at L'Arche Clinton
