Today, we reflect on the memory of those who lost their lives on September 11, 2001. Together, we look toward the future knowing we can never forget the past.
Autistic adults have more job opportunities than they used to, and a small neurodiverse workforce is thriving — but mainly at select companies that invest heavily in such employees: https://bit.ly/3ijnPzT

He is highly competent, friendly, personable, and quickly establishes himself as a vital part of each team he is part of. Mike is incredibly reliable.

The BAYADA Way is the light that shines within each one of us — a spirit that connects us to each other, a spirit bigger than ourselves. This spirit brings meaning to our lives and to our work, and brings us together for the higher purpose of providing support and care to Hawaii’s keiki.
October marked BSM, LBA, Erin Walter’s 4 fabulous years with our BAYADA Ohana. Erin has embodied the BAYADA Way since her first day on our team. She has the ability to connect with others and make them feel comfortable. She cares deeply about others and will always lend a helping hand. She is smart, witty, and an absolute joy to be around. She continues to help provide compassionate, excellent, & reliable ABA services to our students & schools on the Big Island.
Erin, thank you for your years of service. Thank you for being our greatest asset and for your ongoing commitment to help us grow. You’ve been there through every storm and celebration our team has faced. We appreciate you & ALL that you do! To many more BAYADA years, Mahalo Nui Loa Erin ❤️
Amidst the Black Lives Matter movement and the COVID-19 pandemic, we believe it's more important than ever for all of us to stand together against racism at home and at work—and to honor the contributions of Black Americans to our society and culture throughout the history of our nation. After all, Black History is American History.
Black History Month isn't just a February-only event, but an opportunity to continue to learn, embrace equality, and celebrate our uniqueness all year long. Partnering with The Diversity Movement, BAYADA created our Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion office, to provide education, resources, and opportunities to support our people and help our employees become better advocates and allies.
In the comments, tell us, what does Black History Month mean to you?
Congratulations to congratulate Danielle Paris-Larson for passing her RBT test and joining the BBH team! BAYADA is excited to have you! #ThisIsBAYADA
