Respect

As a human services organization supporting people with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD), we care about our employees as people, not just as our workforce. We give the same respect, inclusion, and encouragement of creativity to our employees as we do to the people we support.

Rewarding work

Employees frequently refer to their work family as family — the work we do is personal, at times difficult, and incredibly rewarding. Our mission of living, loving, learning, and working speaks to our goals for the people we support but also to our YAI community, including our staff.

Training

Whether you have worked in human services for 20 years or are new to the field, YAI prepares you with training at every stage, from entry-level positions to senior management. In 2018, YAI created a training program in conjunction with Rutgers University to provide advanced manager and leadership training.

Benefits

YAI wants our employees to achieve their goals, both professional and personal, which is why we offer flexible schedules, generous time off, and monetary and resource programs such as tuition reimbursement, the Employee Assistance Program, and employee discounts, among others. Many of our employees attend school and care for family members, and we understand the need for flexibility and support in balancing the work-life relationship.

Flexibility

We offer full-time, part-time, and per diem positions, to best fit our employees' scheduling needs.
