Fulfilling lives. Realizing potential.
Hope Christian Services provides care, programs, and resources for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities, ensuring that each resident reaches their full potential. Our organization addresses every aspect of life—medical, residential, social, educational, vocational, recreational, and spiritual.
Hope Christian Services opened as Eastern Christian Children’s Retreat on December 4, 1972 as the only facility of its kind in the state of New Jersey. ECCR expanded into the community in 1986 with the development of community-based group homes, where residents enjoy supervised, supported living. In 1992 ECCR advanced its philosophy of providing a home-like setting for residents with the construction of on-site lodges.
We are seeking a compassionate and licensed Occupational Therapist to join our team on a Per Diem basis. This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced OT seeking flexible scheduling while making a meaningful impact in the lives of adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities.
The Occupational Therapist evaluates, develops, and implements therapeutic interventions designed to improve functional independence, daily living skills, sensory processing, motor development, and overall quality of life for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities.
This role works collaboratively with residential staff, nursing, behavioral supports, families, guardians, and interdisciplinary team members to ensure individuals receive comprehensive, person-centered services.
Employment is contingent upon successful completion of all required pre-employment screenings, including background checks, registry checks, drug testing, license verification, and other requirements in accordance with applicable laws and agency policies.
If you are looking for a flexible Occupational Therapy opportunity where your expertise can directly improve the lives of individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities, we encourage you to apply today.
