• Review implementation approaches, technical deliverables, and program tools for consistency with applicable guidelines, funder requirements, and established best practices; identify matters that require review by a licensed clinical professional.
• Analyze program indicators, assessment results, and implementation findings to identify service-delivery gaps and recommend feasible corrective actions and quality improvement priorities.
