Job description
nAbout Empower Learning
nEmpower Learning is an ABA and early intervention center in Eagan, Minnesota, serving children and families through Minnesota's EIDBI program. Our team of BCBAs, social workers, and behavior professionals builds individualized, play based programming that helps young children communicate, connect, and grow. We are a close knit clinic that takes documentation, supervision, and family partnership seriously, and we are growing.
nThe opportunity
nWe are looking for a licensed Speech Language Pathologist to join our clinical team in a role with real room to grow. You will start as an EIDBI provider, working hands on with our learners on communication, language, and social skills inside our existing program. As Empower stands up its own in house speech therapy line, your license anchors that launch and your role grows into a hybrid EIDBI plus speech therapy position, with pay stepping up to $55 per hour. If you want to help shape a speech program from the ground up rather than slot into one that already exists, this is that opportunity.
nWhy this role stands out
nGrow into a hybrid EIDBI and speech therapy role, with pay up to $55 per hour as we launch our in house speech line
nReal autonomy: company devices, a budget for materials, and a say in what we bring in for the kids
nA predictable Monday to Friday schedule, 8 to 4, with a paid lunch
nA family friendly agency that works with you on flexible scheduling when you are balancing your own children, including hours that fit around school or childcare
nA collaborative, fully licensed clinical team to lean on (BCBA, LICSW, LSW, and a QSP), not solo work
nThe chance to help build a speech program from the ground up
nWhat you will do
nSupport the client intake process and help new families get started
nDevelop communication and expressive language goals for each child as part of the ITP (individual treatment plan) process
nDeliver direct speech and communication intervention to young children across a range of communication profiles, from emerging and limited verbal speakers and children with speech impairments to learners who are nonverbal or use AAC and sign
nProvide observation and direction (O&D) to behavior staff working with their clients so programming stays effective, clear, and consistent
nDeliver parent and caregiver (family) training so families can carry strategies into the home
nComplete H0032 progress monitoring: review data and graphs, update plans, and make clinical decisions
nWork in a collaborative team alongside other licensed professionals, including BCBAs, LICSWs, and LSWs, and the Qualified Supervising Professional
nKeep clean, timely documentation tied to each child's individual treatment plan
nAs the speech line launches, build and deliver medical speech therapy alongside your EIDBI work
nWhat we are looking for
nRequired
nMaster's degree in speech language pathology
nActive Minnesota Speech Language Pathologist license (independent, post clinical fellowship)
nASHA Certificate of Clinical Competence (CCC SLP)
nEligibility to clear a Minnesota DHS background study (NETStudy 2.0)
nExperience supporting children with autism and related conditions, including learners who use AAC devices, American Sign Language (ASL), and echolalia (echoing)
nA collaborative, team first approach and comfort working inside an ABA and EIDBI setting
nPreferred
nFeeding therapy experience, an area of growing need in our clinic
nComfort and skill supporting children with significant, communication driven behaviors
nExperience coaching adults, including parents and paraprofessionals, not only direct one on one therapy
nFamiliarity with ABA principles and naturalistic developmental interventions
nFamiliarity with Natural Environment Teaching (NET) and an assent based therapy model
nFamiliarity with Gestalt Language Processing and the Natural Language Acquisition (NLA) framework for children who echo
nSkill writing measurable, data based communication and expressive goals and using progress data and graphs to guide decisions
nInterest in program building, especially anyone who has helped stand up a new service or department
nSchedule and support
nThis is a structured, predictable full time role, Monday to Friday, 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM with a paid lunch. You will carry a balanced caseload that includes direct speech and communication intervention, observation and direction of behavior staff, family training, progress monitoring, clinical decision making, and team collaboration. We keep documentation time manageable so your hours go to the children. You will work alongside an experienced clinical team and a Qualified Supervising Professional. The agency provides company devices and a strong clinical system that makes documenting, writing notes, and collecting data straightforward. Materials and resources not already on hand can be purchased, and you will be able to request items for the center that could benefit the children, their treatment, and clinic productivity.
nPay and benefits
n$38.00 to $45.00 per hour to start, based on experience
nA clear path to up to $55 per hour as the in house speech program launches and your role becomes hybrid
nPaid time off, accrued at 1 hour for every 30 hours worked
nA stipend toward your own health insurance (in place of a group health plan)
n401k retirement plan (no employer match)
nAssistance with continuing education (CEUs) and license fees, as approved by management
nSupervision and mentorship from an experienced clinical team
