AMN Healthcare is currently partnering with a school in Brooklyn, NY to fill two full-time, onsite Speech Language Pathologist (SLP) positions for the remainder of the school year. These roles offer a 35-hour work week and provide an opportunity to work in a dynamic, multidisciplinary environment serving children with varied diagnoses including emotional disturbance (ED), learning disabilities (LD), ADHD, and autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Responsibilities include conducting assessments, maintaining records, providing individual and group therapy, and participating in team meetings and parent training.
This is a well-established nonprofit organization founded in 1953, known for its commitment to serving children and adults with psychiatric and developmental disabilities. The center fosters a collaborative and inclusive work culture, with staff who are passionate about making a difference. The Special Education Department is particularly strong, offering individualized treatment plans and a supportive environment for both students and clinicians. Employees appreciate the opportunity to work closely with children and contribute meaningfully to their development.
Located in Brooklyn, the center benefits from its proximity to Manhattan, Queens, and Staten Island, offering easy access to major urban hubs. Brooklyn itself is a vibrant borough known for its cultural diversity, artistic energy, and thriving nightlife. Popular neighborhoods like Williamsburg and Bushwick offer rooftop bars, jazz lounges, and venues such as House of Yes, Clover Club, and BrownstoneJazz, which host live music, themed parties, and performances. The food scene is equally impressive, with options ranging from gourmet dining to eclectic street eats.
For those relocating, Brooklyn offers a range of housing options. Rentals for 2–3 bedroom apartments typically range from $2,400 to $4,000/month, with shared housing options starting around $850/month. While the cost of living is higher than the national average, it is more affordable than Manhattan. Monthly expenses for a single person average around $1,500, excluding rent. Public transportation is reliable and widely used, making commuting convenient.
Working through AMN Healthcare comes with a host of benefits. Clinicians receive weekly pay, health, dental, and vision insurance, and access to 401(k) retirement plans. AMN also offers housing and travel stipends for eligible travelers, clinical support, and access to the Televate® teletherapy platform. Additional perks include referral bonuses up to $3,000, a Clinical Fellowship Program for new grads, and opportunities for professional development through podcasts and learning resources.
This is a fantastic opportunity for SLPs looking to make a meaningful impact while enjoying the cultural richness and professional support that Brooklyn and AMN Healthcare have to offer.
