ABAshifts exists because the ABA staffing crisis isn't about a shortage of talent — it's about a shortage of schedule compatibility.
The ABA field has a staffing crisis hiding in plain sight. There are 187,000+ certified RBTs in the U.S. and growing demand for services — 1 in 36 children are now diagnosed with autism.
But industry reporting puts RBT turnover as high as 77–103% per year. Companies can't keep their teams. Families wait weeks or months for therapy to start. And the #1 reason RBTs leave isn't pay — it's schedule instability.
No single company can guarantee a full week of hours. Cancellations, waitlists, and scheduling conflicts leave RBTs piecing together 20-something hours and hoping next week is better. When it isn't, they leave.
ABAshifts is a case-matching platform that connects ABA companies with qualified, nearby RBTs and BCBAs — matched on schedule fit first, with full credentials and resumes in view post-match.
We're not a job board. We're not a staffing agency. We're a case-matching platform purpose-built for the ABA field, where schedule is everything and the wrong hire costs thousands. The company hires the clinician directly — we're never the employer.
Schedule fit is the top matching factor, so the strongest fits surface first — and you spend less time on interviews that go nowhere.
Anonymous until mutual interest. RBTs browse without exposing their identity to current or potential employers.
Built for this field — BACB credentials, supervision hours, service types, practice management tools.
20-hour cap on every case. We help companies retain staff by helping staff earn more — not leave.
