The Program Host Track · Capacity Building Grant

Grow your practice into the network's schools — without leaving the one you have.

The Program Host Track is for clinicians who want to start, grow, and expand a group practice in the network's schools. The Capacity Building Grant funds the infrastructure; you provide the clinical leadership.

The Capacity Building Grant funds the functions that usually stop a practice from scaling.

How it Works

Three steps from application to growth

01

Your facility is built

Once the school-based medical facility is completed and deemed ready by the Network, schools are assigned to you as they become available. Each school includes a medical suite supported by a therapist — a Transitional Coach, a title that helps reduce the stigma often associated with traditional mental health labels.

02

You receive your Unit

Upon joining the Network, you are assigned one Unit comprising 10 Transitional Coaches — all associate- or fully-licensed therapists.

03

You grow

Program Hosts who successfully manage their responsibilities may be assigned additional Units as they become available.

Your Primary Role

Clinical oversight. On your schedule. Fully remote.

Because the Capacity Building Grant covers all core administrative functions, your responsibility as a Program Host is focused: review, approve, or deny notes submitted by the therapists in your Unit, and ensure documentation meets Medicaid billing standards.

This review process typically takes 2–3 hours per weekday, on your schedule, and can be done 100% remotely. There is no requirement to visit school campuses, and you do not need to leave your current practice to serve as a Program Host.

Program Host Compensation

$750–$1,500 per Transitional Coach, per month

Per Unit of 10 Transitional Coaches, over the 10-month academic year. New Hosts typically begin near the lower end of this range and grow toward the upper end over approximately two academic years as caseloads and documentation volume establish. Unit assignment and earnings are subject to facility readiness, program compliance, and availability.

A trajectory, not a starting salary.

A fully assigned Unit reaches a $75,000–$150,000 annual range at maturity, typically over approximately two academic years. Year one builds the foundation; the upper range reflects an established Unit meeting performance and compliance benchmarks. Earnings are earned over time and are not guaranteed.
