Paragon Behavioral Health Connections is a Colorado technology-powered behavioral health organization offering seamless digital health and in-home services. Paragon offers comprehensive care that is convenient for where people live. Our vision is to provide services to families with complex needs, help resolve challenges, and obtain skills and resources to achieve well-being. Paragon’s comprehensive services support youth and families through challenges as they step down from inpatient hospitalization, comprehensive support for child welfare-involved families, and services for youth with complex needs including depression, behavioral challenges, trauma, family conflict, and substance use.

Collaboration and Teamwork: Communicate, collaborate, and touch base with a wide variety of other team members, to ensure alignment of quality care and outcomes for clients.

 

Benefits: Employees working a minimum of 30 hours per week are eligible for comprehensive benefits provided by Paragon BHC. These benefits include health, dental, vision, short-term/long-term disability, and life insurance coverage, all of which are covered at 100% by the employer. These benefits are offered through reputable providers such as United Health Care, Delta Dental, and Principal. Additionally, the company extends health coverage to the employees' families, ensuring that not only the employees but also their families receive complete health coverage. Rest assured, you will receive your full salary, post-tax deductions, thanks to this extensive coverage.

 

Career Development: Paragon is consistently growing and that means there is room for growth. As we expand our services and community reach staff can grow in their areas of interest and expertise
