About Job

Join Our Team at Flourish Community Services
We’re hiring caring, dependable team members to provide In-Home & Community-Based Services in Delaware, Chester, and Montgomery Counties. Flexible options available—work as a W-2 employee or a 1099 contractor, depending on the schedule and structure that works best for you.

What’s the Role?

At Flourish, we provide support that’s as unique as the people we serve. You’ll work one-on-one with individuals with autism or intellectual disabilities, helping them build skills, connect with their community, and live life on their own terms.

Support might include:

  • Practicing independent living skills at home or in the community
  • Volunteering at local shelters or community organizations
  • Attending library groups, art classes, or social events
  • Encouraging routines, communication, and self-advocacy
  • Going for walks, working toward fitness goals, or exploring new hobbies

You’ll need a valid driver’s license and reliable transportation for this role, as many participants require support getting to and from activities.

Why Work With Flourish?

We take the time to match each team member with the right person—based on personality, interests, and availability. We believe great care starts with great relationships.

Here’s what we offer:

  • Flexible Scheduling – We’ll work with your availability
  • W-2 or 1099 Options – Choose what fits best for you
  • Meaningful Work – Help people thrive through real-life experiences
  • Supportive Culture – We’re here for you, every step of the way
  • Observation Hours – Great fit for OT/OTA students

What We’re Looking For

We’re looking for people who are kind, dependable, and ready to show up. The families we work with rely on us, and consistency matters.

You may be a great fit if:

  • You’re reliable and take commitment seriously
  • You’re respectful and open-minded
  • You enjoy working one-on-one and making personal connections
  • You’re willing to learn—we provide training and ongoing support
  • You have a valid driver’s license and reliable transportation

Experience in caregiving, education, or behavioral health is a plus, but not required.

Our Philosophy

At Flourish, we live by “Nothing about us without us.” The people we support lead the way—we simply walk alongside them with encouragement, flexibility, and respect.

Sound like a good fit?
We’d love to connect. Reach out or apply to get started!
