Educational Assistance Program
With our Educational Assistance Program, Pathlight-ERC will contribute up to a certain, substantial amount of money per calendar year for reimbursement for your education to help you further your career.
Health Insurance
A company cannot be healthy if its employees are not. We offer robust medical insurance plans and excellent fringe programs through HealthComp with access to the Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield network.
Retirement Plan
Our robust 401(k) plan is a retirement savings plan designed to allow eligible employees to supplement any existing retirement and pension benefits by saving and investing before-tax dollars through a voluntary salary contribution. A wide variety of investment options are available through our plan, and employees are automatically enrolled at the beginning of the first quarter following just two months of working with us!
Entry Level Roles
We can train someone to do a job but we can’t train a person to have compassion. If you have a passion for mental health and are moved by our mission, then you are in the right place. We offer many entry level positions. If you’re curious about what's available or learning more, read more today or sign up for future opportunities.
As a member of the Response Team, I begin to light the way from the first moment we pick up the phone. I strive to make each call a normalized and easy process, whether its a client, provider or parent. I want to ensure each patient has a thorough understanding of the steps they need to take to enter treatment, so the path towards admission is as clear as possible.
