Senior Associate, Corporate Development
About the role
Why Connections?
Millions of people nationwide experience mental health and substance use crises each year without a safe place to receive care. Their options are typically emergency rooms, long inpatient hospital stays, or jail. Connections exists to change that.
Connections Health Solutions is the nation's leading provider of immediate-access behavioral health crisis care. Our team combines medical and recovery-oriented treatment to stabilize individuals in crisis and connect them to community-based resources for ongoing recovery, diverting individuals from more restrictive settings like jails, emergency rooms, and inpatient hospitals.
Founded by emergency room psychiatrists Dr. Chris Carson and Dr. Robert Williamson, our model is physician-led and data-driven, drawing upon more than 15 years of crisis care expertise. Recognized by SAMHSA and the National Council for Mental Wellbeing as national best practice, we've delivered invaluable treatment to hundreds of thousands of individuals facing crises. Our commitment remains consistent, to improve access, inspire hope, and provide the right support.
Our values shape our decisions, define our culture, and foster continuous learning and growth.
We accept people as they are, creating safe spaces where they feel valued and respected. We inspire hope by walking with people side-by-side, showing them grace and compassion. We act with intention, holding ourselves and each other accountable, and doing the right thing. We work as one team, trusting and supporting each other. We embrace change and innovation, striving to find better ways to fulfill our mission.
We are on a mission to change the face of behavioral health. Help us save lives and make a difference.
