What we do

We’re the operating system for the community health workforce.

Every peer program needs four things working together. We built Polaris around the four core areas that move community health outcomes forward.

  • People

    Workforce development. Get your peers certified, supervised, retained.

  • Programs

    Operations infrastructure. Manage your workforce, document compliance, scale what works.

    Explore
  • Funding

    Sustainable revenue. Grant pipeline, Medicaid billing, scholarships.

Each bucket, in detail

People

Build a certified peer workforce that stays.

  • Certify peer specialists wherever your program operates.
  • Simplify state-by-state credentialing so you build one national workforce.
  • Coach supervisors and track every employee from training to certification in one dashboard.
  • Renew CEUs and recertifications automatically, before they lapse.

Tools and services: Career AI, Polaris LMS, Supervisor Coaching, Cohort Programs

Programs

Operate any community health initiative without losing audit readiness.

  • Document every compliance touchpoint so audits never catch you mid-scramble.
  • Manage your workforce across initiatives, not just training cohorts.
  • Schedule supervisor check-ins, milestones, and assessments from one place.
  • Reuse templates between initiatives instead of rebuilding every quarter.

Funding

Find every sustainable dollar your program can earn.

  • Identify the funding gaps your current pipeline is missing.
  • Match your program against grant priorities you qualify for.
  • Bill Medicaid for peer services with templates that pass audit.
  • Run scholarship and payment plan logic without spreadsheets.

Steve Robinson COO, iWILL ‘til i’m WELL

Before joining Polaris Pathways, we had 7 Certified Recovery Peer Specialists and 14 Recovery Peer Specialists in need of certification. After implementation of our new CRPS Training Program, we have 14 peers on their way to certification through the Florida Certification Board, a 200% increase in Certified Peers at Here Tomorrow. Thanks to Polaris, we have unlocked a completely new source of revenue to put back into the community.
