Massachusetts Communities Report Multiple Social-Service Openings

Several Massachusetts communities are advertising human-services jobs supporting people with intellectual and developmental disabilities, mental-health needs, and other care needs. Openings in Palmer, Worcester, and Framingham include direct-support and residential-care work, community outings and case management, and supervisory roles, with some employers offering training and benefits. Gardner listings include leadership positions in hospice volunteering, employment and education services, and behavioral-health crisis care. The state Department of Developmental Services is also seeking a unit director to oversee a day program at the Hogan Regional Center, managing staff, budgets, compliance, and service quality.
