Job description

Where people get better at life!

Join us in our mission to make a difference and shape a more inclusive future.


The Center for Disability Services offers hope, innovation, and achievement to the people we support. For 80 years, we have been one of upstate New York's largest providers of programs and services for individuals who have disabilities.

This is a great opportunity for those already in the human service field or anyone looking to start a new career! We offer paid on-the-job training! Prior experience is not required! Looking to make a difference? We are searching for Direct Support Professionals to join our Day Services Team. Together, we empower people with intellectual and developmental disabilities through meaningful and engaging opportunities and activities both onsite and in the community. Bowling, cooking, dance, crafts, volunteering, games, music, photography, exercising, shopping, and exploring the community are just some of what we do. Come share your interests and passions to provide new and enriching experiences.

Center For Disability Services is looking for a Day Program Counselor for our Without Walls program. This is a community-based experience where you will pick up our members from their residence in one of our vehicles and enjoy a day out. These activities include bowling, volunteering, shopping, and exploring other community events. This position has minimal supervision, so you must have the ability to work independently and feel comfortable working alone with people who have developmental disabilities.

We offer:

  • Flexible hours
  • No weekends
  • No overnights
  • Part-time and full-time opportunities
  • Holidays off
  • 3 weeks PTO
  • Comprehensive benefits package for full-time employees

Responsibilities:

  • Support and encourage independence in all aspects of daily life.
  • Collaborate with your team to plan, create and assist with activities and opportunities to meet the needs and interests of the people you support.
  • Provide any necessary direct personal care to the people we support.

Requirements:

  • High School diploma or equivalent
  • NYS Driver's License in good standing
  • Must be at least 18 years old and be able to lift a minimum of 50 pounds.

At The Center for Disability Services, we don't just accept difference - we celebrate it, support it, and thrive on it for the benefit of our employees and the people we support. We are proud to be an Equal Opportunity Employer and do not discriminate against any protected class of job applicant or employee in our employment practices.

Compensation Range:

$18.15 - $19.25
