Company Description

At Dungarvin, we are dedicated to making a meaningful impact in the lives of individuals with diverse abilities. We provide essential support to adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities, autism, mental health conditions, and complex behavioral support needs. We help individuals build skills, participate in their communities, strengthen their independence, and enjoy meaningful daily experiences.

About our Adult Day Program:

Our Fairfield Adult Day Program provides structured daytime services for adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities.

Individuals participate in onsite activities such as art, music, technology, recreation, activities of daily living, and life-skills development. Community activities may include parks, bowling, volunteering, and other opportunities that support independence, social connection, personal goals, and community inclusion.

The Role:

Dungarvin is seeking a confident, organized, dependable, and experienced Program Coordinator (PC) for our Adult Day Program in Fairfield, CA.

The Program Coordinator (PC) is the lead Direct Support Professional (DSP) within the program. This is a hands-on working lead role, not a traditional administrative or supervisory position. It is a great next step for an experienced DSP who enjoys supporting individuals, guiding coworkers, and helping the daily program run smoothly.

The PC works directly with individuals throughout the day, providing instruction, skill development, community support, and positive behavioral support. The PC also coordinates activities, adjusts daily schedules, supports documentation, reinforces expectations, and provides day-to-day coaching and guidance to DSP staff.

The PC reports to the Program Director and leads through communication, consistency, professionalism, and example, without formal supervisory authority.

At least one year of relevant direct support experience is required.

Why You’ll Love This Role

Competitive Pay: $23.75/hour
Full Range Scale: $23.75 - $26.45 per hour (The starting rate for this position is fixed at $23.75 per hour. Pay increases occur over time and are tied to tenure/length of employment with Dungarvin.)
Meaningful Work: Help individuals build skills, independence, and community connections
Leadership Opportunities: Lead by example while coaching, guiding, and supporting staff
Variety: Balance direct support, daily scheduling, staff guidance, communication, and program coordination.
Community Connections: Help build partnerships and foster a vibrant, inclusive program environment.
Professional Growth: Develop leadership, communication, documentation, and program coordination skills while continuing to work directly with the people we support.
