Aim Star Learning Reviews

I never heard anyone in management say how this work was helpful for the kids, only the people around them, and frankly I find that pretty alarming. They use resources from Autism Speaks, which is an organization people who have autism have repeatedly denounced as a hateful, ableist platform, and they do not perform regular ethical audits on their practices. Management will not send a sick child home unless their temperature reaches 101, and this includes cases of pinkeye and lice, where fevers rarely happen but contagion is rampant. As for benefits, 1 hour of PTO is accrued for every 40 hours of work, and there is no separate paid sick leave, so with kids coming in sick all the time, BTs get sick and have no options other than coming into work after using all their PTO. Management is extremely petty, and will ignore concerns brought up by BTs or turn it around and get BTs into hot water for something they never communicated was a problem. Client treatment is horrendous, the reason I left was because I felt I was actively doing harm and nobody would listen or hear my concerns. Parents are beginning to complain and pull their kids from the Ellensburg location because they don’t trust Lesley’s intentions, or they have been personally mistreated by management while advocating for their child. If I had a kid who I thought would benefit from ABA services, I wouldn’t take them here.

It can be very easy to burnout, the training and work can be tough/intimidating to do when just starting out
