What employees are saying

I have the best coworkers and kids to work with. I have never been more excited to wake up and come to work and feel so welcomed and loved.

It allows me the ability to share ideas and solutions before decisions are made. Strides mission is one I strongly believe in.

I have the ability to make an impact both in the clients I serve and their families. This goes so much farther than we see. It goes into their homes, the grocery store, and the car. I love my job because I am able to play a role in changing lives.

I am provided consistent opportunities to learn and grow as a professional.

The RBT’s, BCBA’s, staff and children are amazing. I’m constantly learning and if I ever have questions, everyone is here to help! Stride is such a fantastic environment for both the kids and adults.

It’s family oriented. Positive energy. Feel rewarded for the work we put in. It shows me it’s where I’m supposed to be.

I feel valued and that I make a difference
