You will be required to report on your progress achieved, barriers encountered, and efforts to overcome these barriers in a performance assessment report to be submitted at least annually. At a minimum, your performance assessment should include the required performance measures identified above.

Process Questions: How closely did implementation match the plan? What types of changes were made to the originally proposed plan?

What effect did the changes have on the planned intervention and performance assessment? Who provided (program staff) what services (modality, type, intensity, duration), to whom (individual characteristics), in what context (system, community), and at what cost (facilities, personnel, dollars)?
