Purpose: This guide helps clinicians and program staff manage program schedule templates, enroll patients, and track attendance compliance.

- Schedule Templates: Define weekly block schedules with group, individual, and peer support sessions
- Patient Enrollment: Enroll patients into programs with start/end dates and status tracking
- Compliance Tracking: Monitor whether patients meet IOP (9 hrs/3 days) and PHP (20 hrs/5 days) minimums
- Group Session Generation: Auto-create CL-14 group sessions from program templates
