How much do developmental therapists make per year?

Question

Developmental therapist in terms of Special Education. In Indiana there is a program called First Steps. I am just curious as to how much I can expect to be earning after I graduate, this is my major!

Answer 1

depends on your training /experience-

my state hires paraprofessionals with just a HS diploma and 1 year experience at about 10-15 per hour

a person witha BA could make 35-50

a masters could start at 60-

keep in mind inmy area -that doens't include traveling-we work for about 1-2 hours with 1 child and tehn drive to teh next childs house-so a lot of time is spent (unpaid) driving-you might only actually get paid for working 25 hours per week-with travelling and prep time it equals 35-40 hours

Answer 2

Not enough!

Answer 3

30,000 - 55,000
