We need to output HTML fragment with sections: Overview (maybe not a heading? The instruction: use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). The posting includes Overview, Responsibilities, What We're Looking For (maybe Requirements), Qualifications, Benefits, Supplemental Information (maybe not needed). We should not repeat job title as heading. We should include sections only when there is real specific content. We need to preserve all substantive info, not invent or summarize away detail. Remove boilerplate like EEO, legal, etc. Also remove application instructions, duplicated lines, cookie/navigation etc. The posting includes some boilerplate: "Larimer County is an Equal Opportunity Employer..." that's EEO, should be removed. Also "Supplemental Information" includes some info about hiring levels, etc. That may be relevant; we need to decide if to keep. It includes details about hiring level I/II, eligibility list, etc. That's substantive. We should keep that but maybe incorporate into Qualifications or Requirements. The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." So we could combine Qualifications and Requirements into one section maybe "Qualifications". Also "What We're Looking For" could be part of Requirements. We'll produce sections: Overview (maybe as

About the role? but they said use headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Overview could be "About the role". We'll use

About the role

for overview paragraph. Then Responsibilities: list. Then Requirements/Qualifications: we can combine into

Qualifications

with subpoints maybe bullet list for required qualifications for I and II. But we need to preserve all detail. Could list both levels. Then Benefits: list. Schedule: we have schedule info in overview: flexible schedule options, shift assignments etc. That's schedule info. So we should create a

Schedule

section with that info. Pay: not mentioned, so omit. Skills: not explicitly listed; maybe we could omit. We must not include placeholder text. Ensure we don't include "commensurate with experience" etc. We need to remove duplicated lines: e.g., "Possession of a valid Driver's License by date of hire, required." appears twice for I and II; we can keep both but maybe combine. We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences. Let's craft. Structure:

But we used

which is not allowed? The instruction only mentions using

for section headings. It didn't forbid other headings, but to be safe we could use

for each major section and use

or

    for subpoints. Could also use inside

    . However using

    might be okay but risk. Safer: use

    for each major section only; inside we can use

    with bold text. But we need to keep structure clear. Could do:

    Qualifications

    Community Justice Therapist I

      ...

      Community Justice Therapist II

        ... That's fine. Now Benefits:

        Benefits

        • Medical, Dental, and Vision benefits
        • FSA or HSA (depending on the medical plan)
        • Short- and Long-Term Disability
        • Employee Assistance Program
        • Basic Life/AD&D Insurance
        • Accident and Critical Illness Insurance
        • Retirement Plan 401(a) with employer match
        • 457(b) Deferred Compensation

        Schedule:

        Schedule

        To support the operational needs of a 7‑day program, this position offers flexible schedule options. Shift assignments may include Monday through Friday (with two evening shifts), Sunday through Thursday, or Tuesday through Saturday during typical business hours. Schedules may occasionally fluctuate to accommodate evolving program needs and mandatory reporting requirements.

        We also need to include info about CHSC loan repayment incentives maybe in Overview or Benefits? It's a benefit: "As such, substance use disorder treatment clinicians are eligible to apply for CHSC loan repayment incentives." Could be placed in Benefits or Overview. Since it's a specific benefit, we could add to Benefits list. But we must not invent. We'll add a bullet: "Eligibility for Colorado Health Service Corps (CHSC) loan repayment incentives for substance use disorder treatment clinicians." Also include link? We should preserve all substantive information; links are part of info. Should we keep them? The instruction: preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. So we should keep the URLs as part of text. For overview we have link to CHSC: https://cdphe.colorado.gov/colorado-health-service-corps . Also link to full job descriptions: https://www.larimer.gov/hr/careers/job-descriptions . Also link to benefits: https://www.larimer.org/hr/benefits . We should keep them. Thus in Overview paragraph we include those links. Also in Benefits we could include the link to benefits details. Let's craft Overview paragraph(s): Overview: "We know you have worked hard for your licensure and want to work in an environment where you are respected, supported by colleagues, and paid competitively for your time. Do you find value in serving underrepresented sections of our community that are doing courageous work? Are you invested in making our community healthier? Larimer County Community Corrections is looking for a skilled therapist to join our dynamic team of professionals. The Community Justice Therapist will work within our residential and outpatient addictions, mental health, and criminogenic treatment programming with a population that is serving a criminal justice sentence. Our treatment programs consist of men’s and women’s 90‑day Intensive Residential Treatment (IRT), 21‑day Strategic Individualized Remediation Treatment (STIRT), and Residential Dual Diagnosis Treatment (RDDT). We are seeking a compassionate, flexible, and purpose‑driven individual dedicated to supporting a resilient population through their journey and as they navigate the stages of change. Larimer County Community Corrections is an approved Colorado Health Service Corps (CHSC) site. As such, substance use disorder treatment clinicians are eligible to apply for CHSC loan repayment incentives. For more information, visit: https://cdphe.colorado.gov/colorado-health-service-corps . To support the operational needs of a 7‑day program, this position offers flexible schedule options. Shift assignments may include Monday through Friday (with two evening shifts), Sunday through Thursday, or Tuesday through Saturday during typical business hours. Schedules may occasionally fluctuate to accommodate evolving program needs and mandatory reporting requirements." But schedule part we moved to Schedule section; we should not duplicate. So overview should exclude schedule details. We'll keep overview up to CHSC info, then schedule separate. Thus Overview paragraph ends before schedule. Now Responsibilities: list as given. Responsibilities bullet list: - Collaborating with the treatment team to provide individual and group therapy sessions for participants in residential substance use and aftercare programs. - Facilitating a range of client-centered, gender-responsive groups focused on substance abuse, mental health, trauma-informed care, cognitive restructuring, and life skills development. - Conducting substance abuse and/or mental health evaluations to assess client needs. - Providing individual and relational therapy when appropriate to support client progress. - Ensuring accurate and up-to-date client documentation and record-keeping. Also there is a line: "To view the full job descriptions, visit https://www.larimer.gov/hr/careers/job-descriptions". That's a link; we could include as a note after responsibilities maybe as a p. But it's not a responsibility; it's a reference. Could be placed after responsibilities as a p. But instruction: preserve ALL substantive information. So we should keep that link somewhere. Perhaps after responsibilities as a p. Now Qualifications: we already have. Now Benefits: include link to benefits details. Now Schedule: we have. We must not include EEO boilerplate, supplemental info about eligibility list etc. However supplemental info includes some useful info: "This posting is to fill vacant positions and to create an eligibility list for future openings. Work within an environment where culture is the key to our success. Working with numerous stakeholders in the criminal justice system. Candidates may be hired as a Community Justice Therapist I or Community Justice Therapist II based on qualifications. In order to qualify for the level II, candidates will need to have a Master's Degree in a license-eligible behavioral health field as defined by the Department of Regulatory Agencies (DORA), one year of experience providing substance abuse and mental health treatment, and either Certified Addictions Specialist (CAS) or Licensed Addiction Counselor (LAC) certification. An offer of employment is contingent upon the successful completion of required pre-employment checks or testing. All application components must be submitted by 11:59 PM MT on the closing date listed." Some of this is relevant: eligibility list, culture, stakeholders, contingency, deadline. The deadline is application instruction; we should remove application instructions. The line about "All application components must be submitted by 11:59 PM MT on the closing date listed." is application instruction, should be removed. Also "An offer of employment is contingent upon the successful completion of required pre-employment checks or testing." is generic hiring condition; maybe we can keep as it's substantive? It's not boilerplate EEO; it's about hiring process. Might be okay to keep. However the instruction says remove application instructions. That line is definitely an application instruction. The contingency line is not exactly an instruction but a condition; could keep. The eligibility list and culture etc are substantive. We could incorporate some of that into Overview or Qualifications. For simplicity, we could add a paragraph after Qualifications about "This posting is to fill vacant positions and to create an eligibility list for future openings. The role involves working with numerous stakeholders
