    • Assist in data management and analysis and in writing reports to fulfill grant requirements, including tracking and documenting project activities and evaluation data and outcomes.
    • Travel to project sites as needed.
    • Perform other job-related duties as assigned.

    • Master’s degree (relevant social science or public health field)
    • On-the-ground experience in implementing and evaluating prevention programming in schools and communities
    • Subject matter expertise in prevention science and programming and in substance use and mental health disorder prevention and intervention
    • Strong organization, time management, and interpersonal skills
    • Strong project management skills and experience
    • Excellent writing and communication skills
