I have been working at Chileda for almost 2 years now. I started out as a Direct Support Professional. Last May I moved into a House Manager Position. The training provided is intensive and ever changing. There are various trainings throughout the beginning orientation plus continued trainings annually. Chileda is always looking to improve their trainings and work with their staff to improve. This has been by far the BEST work environment I have experienced and I have had many different jobs including several others in human services. Being a part of Chileda helps me contribute to society and I feel like I make a real difference not only in the lives of the students but my staff as well. On that point, I have worked with and continue to work with the most amazing compassionate co workers! read more

I have been with Chileda for almost a year, and I think it is a great place. Employees get hours and hours of training on trauma-informed care, safety, and behavioral modification so they can help students as much as possible. The entire institute is designed with the students in mind to promote safety and routine, which helps the students work towards their goals. I appreciate that Chileda is structured, but still has fun things for the students, like movie nights, dances, or games. I believe the employees at Chileda do their best to help students reach their full potential. read more

This facility has the most accepting and energetic environment and I am proud to be apart of it. Chileda takes pride in training their workers to be able to use all of the tools around them to better help the kids as they learn how to regulate their emotions, improve fine motor skills, and every day living activities. The kids who come to Chileda captured my heart on my very first day! It's not only the kids that I love working with but also the staff. Chileda is a great community that takes care of their people. read more
