Community Facilitator/Care Giver/Direct Support Professional

Entry-Level JobVerifiedNo experience needed

Job Description

Loma Support Services , we believe independence looks different for everyone. Our work is centered on helping adults with developmental disabilities identify what matters to them, build practical skills, become more confident in their communities, and make progress toward goals that are meaningful to their own lives. We specialize in Tailored Day Services (TDS) , providing individualized, one-on-one support throughout the community. The name Loma means hill in Spanish. To us, it represents steady growth and forward movement. Our role is not to take over or make decisions for the people we serve. It is to walk alongside them, provide the right level of support, and help them become increasingly confident and independent. We are currently looking for thoughtful, reliable, and motivated Community Facilitators to join our growing team. Growing With Loma Loma Support Services is a newer, growing organization, and we're building our team thoughtfully from the beginning. We staff each participant individually based on their goals, needs, schedule, location, and staff fit. Because of this, hours may begin gradually and increase as additional participant matches become available. We're looking for people who are comfortable joining a growing organization and who are interested in growing with us as we continue to expand. What This Role Looks Like This is not a traditional facility-based day program position. As a Community Facilitator, you will work one-on-one with a participant in real community settings and help them make progress toward individualized goals. Every participant is different, so your work may look different from day to day.
You may support someone with:
Exploring employment interests and career options Job readiness and employment-related skills Finding volunteer opportunities College or other post-secondary education Learning how to navigate the community Transportation and mobility skills Self-advocacy and communication Money management and budgeting Grocery shopping and meal planning Accessing community resources Social and recreational activities Building confidence in unfamiliar environments Learning how to plan and organize their day Developing greater independence with everyday responsibilities These areas align with the individualized supports Loma currently identifies in its Tailored Day Services program. You will also be responsible for documenting services, communicating appropriately with the Loma team, and keeping your work focused on the participant's identified goals. What Makes Tailored Day Services Different Tailored Day Services are exactly that: tailored . Participants are not placed into the same schedule or expected to work on the same activities. Instead, services are built around the individual's interests, strengths, needs, and goals. Some participants may be focused heavily on employment. Another may be learning transportation skills. Another may be attending college, becoming more socially connected, or learning how to advocate for themselves. Loma's TDS program provides one-on-one support in areas including employment, community integration, transportation, recreation, self-advocacy, and post-secondary education. The Kind of Staff Member We're Looking For We are not simply looking for someone to accompany a participant throughout the day. We are looking for someone who knows how to support, teach, encourage, and gradually build independence . A strong Community Facilitator understands when to step in, when to prompt, and when to allow someone the opportunity to try something independently.
You should be:
Dependable and punctual Patient and respectful Comfortable working independently Comfortable working one-on-one A clear communicator Able to take appropriate initiative Flexible and able to problem-solve Professional with participants and families Comfortable working throughout the community Organized with documentation Able to maintain appropriate professional boundaries Interested in teaching skills rather than simply completing tasks for someone Willing to learn about the individual you are supporting instead of assuming one approach works for everyone Our participant handbook describes the staff relationship as a professional partnership focused on supporting independence, respecting participant choices, maintaining boundaries, and keeping services goal-focused. Transportation Because Tailored Day Services take place throughout the community, some participant assignments require staff transportation. For positions requiring participant transportation, you must have: A reliable personal vehicle available for participant transportation A valid California driver's license Current automobile insurance An acceptable driving record A vehicle that meets required safety and inspection requirements Transportation may include driving participants to community activities, educational programs, volunteer opportunities, appointments, employment-related activities, or other locations connected to their individual goals. Mileage reimbursement is provided for eligible work-related mileage. Requirements High school diploma or equivalent Experience supporting individuals with developmental disabilities preferred Ability to work independently in community-based settings Reliable attendance Ability to complete required documentation and progress notes Ability to complete required background and pre-employment screening CPR and First Aid certification, or willingness to obtain certification Reliable personal transportation for assignments requiring participant transportation Valid California driver's license and current automobile insurance when transporting participants Why Loma? Loma Support Services is a small, growing organization , and we want to stay intentional about how we grow. We individually staff referrals so that we can consider the needs of both the participant and the staff member rather than treating placements as interchangeable. Your existing flyer already emphasizes that Loma staffs referrals individually to help create the right match.
Working at Loma means:
Providing individualized one-on-one support Working in real community environments Helping participants accomplish meaningful goals Having variety in your work Receiving guidance and support from a smaller team Having opportunities to grow as the organization grows Being part of a company that prioritizes quality and individualized service over a one-size-fits-all approach Our Mission At Loma Support Services, our mission is to empower adults with developmental disabilities to take greater ownership of their lives through personalized, community-integrated services. We believe participants should have the opportunity to choose their goals, pursue their interests, develop meaningful relationships, and define success for themselves. Individual Support. Community Connection. If that approach to this work resonates with you, we would like to hear from you.
