We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? The posting includes "OUR MISSION", "Position Summary", "Key Responsibilities". There's no explicit sections like Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we should only include sections that have real content: maybe "About the role" could be derived from Position Summary? The instruction: use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It says include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text. So we need to map content to appropriate headings. The posting includes "OUR MISSION" and "Position Summary". Could treat "OUR MISSION" as maybe "About the role"? But mission is about organization, not role. However we could create a section "About the role" using the Position Summary text. The mission could be omitted? It's substantive but not about role. The instruction: do NOT repeat the job title as a heading (the page already shows it) and do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short

or drop it. The mission is not metadata; it's about organization. Could we include a section "About the organization"? Not in allowed headings list. The allowed headings are examples; we could use others? It says use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It implies we should use those headings where appropriate. If we have content that matches "About the role", we can use that. The mission could be considered "About the organization" but not in list; maybe we can omit it? But we must preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include mission somewhere. Could we put it in a

under a generic heading? But we shouldn't create a heading not listed? The instruction says use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't forbid other headings, but suggests using those. Safer to include mission as a paragraph under a heading like "About the organization"? Might be considered adding a heading not in list, but maybe acceptable. However instruction: "include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text". It doesn't restrict to only those headings. So we can create a heading for mission if we want. But better to follow examples: maybe we can treat mission as part of "About the role"? Not ideal. We could output:

About the role

[Position Summary text]

Responsibilities

  • ...
We also need to include mission somewhere. Could add a

before About the role: maybe a

describing mission. Or we could add a heading "Our Mission". Since it's not in examples but still a heading. The instruction didn't forbid other headings; it just gave examples. So we can add

Our Mission

with mission text. We must remove boilerplate: cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. There's none. We must preserve all substantive information: mission, position summary, key responsibilities (including each bullet). Also "Other Duties: Performs other job-related duties as assigned." That's a responsibility; we can include as a list item. We need to format responsibilities as
  • each item. The responsibilities list is a long paragraph with sentences separated by periods. We need to split into list items. We should preserve all detail; we can break at each sentence that starts with a capital letter after a period? But we need to ensure we don't lose any info. Let's extract each responsibility sentence. From text: "Key Responsibilities Provides emotional support to residential clients by demonstrating sensitivity and support to those in crisis through active listening and comforting words in a non-judgmental manner.

Provides emotional support to residential clients by demonstrating sensitivity and support to those in crisis through active listening and comforting words in a non-judgmental manner. 2. Collaborate with Case Managers, supervisor, and designated staff on service updates or needs for clients through documentation, email, and/or verbal communication. 3.
