Montrose, CO— The Colorado Army National Guard, U.S. Army and Montrose Regional Health are scheduled to sign a partnership agreement on November 9, 2022, as part of the U.S. Army Partnership for Your Success (PaYS) program at 1:00 p.m. at Montrose Regional Health, 800 S 3rd Street, Montrose, CO 81401.

The PaYS Program is a strategic partnership between the Army and a cross section of private industry, academia and state and local public institutes. The U.S. Army PaYS Program guarantees Soldiers five job interviews and possible employment after their service in the Army. The PaYS Program provides America’s youth with the unique opportunity to simultaneously serve their country and prepare for their future.

The PaYS program is designed to help Soldiers prepare for a career after the Army by connecting them with employers who understand the skills, discipline and work ethic that military service members bring to a business. This program is part of a long-term U.S. Army effort to help Soldiers forge professional relationships with businesses and encourage business owners to look to the Army as a plentiful and reliable recruiting source. Since PaYS began in 2000, more than 1119 employers have partnered with the program.

Members of the media who wish to cover the ceremony should RSVP to MAJ William Brown, Executive Officer, Colorado Army National Guard at (720-250-1060) or [email protected]. Please provide the number of news team members/photographers who will attend. Interviews with participants will be possible following the ceremony.
