At HighPointe Services, we hire compassionate, honest and motivated employees to work together for the common good of people with intellectual and developmental disabilities.

If you are in high school or college, Hattie Larlham is the perfect place to start a career in health care. If you’re a natural caregiver, you’ll feel at home while caring for the people who need it most. Once you take part in the exceptional care we provide while enjoying our comprehensive benefits, you might want to stay a while to join the employees with over 15 years of service at HighPointe.

The HighPointe Services Internship Program is ideal for high school and college students ages 16 and older seeking to gain valuable experience exploring a career in caregiving, nursing or teaching individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities. We offer a paid internship with flexible part-time hours. Students hired will work as Program Facilitators, aiding individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Upon graduation and when the student is 18 years old, Program Facilitators can earn more money and gain additional experience when they transfer into a Direct Support Professional role at HighPointe Services.

The main responsibilities of a Program Facilitator include helping with program activities such as leading art, recreation and game activities, assisting with lunches, moving and lifting individuals, pushing wheelchairs, and other activities as needed.
