Assist the program participants with identifying and establishing natural and professional support in the community.
Maintain contact with program participants to a degree sufficient to support effective engagement as well as monitor and assist progress.
Complete charting for all billable services and all other documentation within the CCS time frame.
Complete all participant-related and program-related paperwork according to established timelines.
