Army PaYS Ceremonial Signing

As part of Riverside’s commitment to becoming a Veteran Friendly Workplace, we hosted a ceremonial signing of a partnership between Riverside Healthcare and the U.S. Army on Tuesday, September 27. This partnership is called the Partnership for Your Success (PaYS) Program.

Army PaYS Program Overview – The Partnership for Your Success (PaYS) Program is a strategic partnership between the U.S. Army and a cross-section of corporations, companies, and public sector agencies. The Program provides America’s Soldiers with an opportunity to serve their country while they prepare for their future. PaYS Partners guarantee Soldiers an interview and possible employment after the Army. This unique Program is part of the Army’s effort to partner with America’s business community and reconnect America with its Army.

Out of Darkness Walk

This year, Riverside will be hosting the annual Out of the Darkness Walk, at our Bourbonnais Campus. The walk will take place on Saturday, October 8 at 10 am, with registration beginning at 9 am.

What is the Out of The Darkness Walk?

The Out of the Darkness Walk raises funds to donate to the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention. It helps patients, people, and families get the help they need and spreads awareness to ????fight the stigma???? against mental health. There will be a bead table, with each color bead representing why you are there for the walk. There will be a memorial area where chalk will be available to memorialize loved ones lost to suicide. 

We can make a really big impact, and show our community how much we care, and that we’re here to help. 

There are a couple of different ways you can help:

-Sign up to walk with our team (Riverside Behavioral Medicine)

-Make a donation. No amount is too small. 

-Share this link with your friends and family so we can make this the biggest and best walk yet!

If there are any questions, reach out to Brittany Kinner at [email protected]
