Hear from Injured Workers and Join Paradigm in Supporting Passion, Purpose, and Kids’ Chance at National Comp

Paradigm is back as a Gold Sponsor for the 2024 National Workers’ Compensation and Disability Conference, October 15-17, in Las Vegas. While visiting booth #927 on the convention floor, you’re invited to share your passion and purpose in our What’s Your Why?: Portraits of Purpose booth experience. An onsite artist will transform your reasons into one unifying illustration—and for every response, Paradigm will make a donation to Kids’ Chance of America on your behalf.

This activity ties directly to Paradigm’s key session, Human-Centered Care & Compassion: Real Workers, Groundbreaking Recoveries, where two catastrophically injured workers will share their why, the purpose they have found in the wake of life-changing injuries, and the critical importance of family and a holistic, team-based approach to care. Thought leaders from Paradigm will also be taking the stage in other exciting sessions spanning a range of topics driving the future state of workers’ compensation and accountable care management.

Going to National Comp? Mark your calendars and make plans to attend these engaging panels showcasing Paradigm’s commitment to life-changing outcomes for injured workers and families.
