Thank you, Ryan and Bruce for replying to my post.  I have been looking through the Singer and Willett link, Bruce, and will spend more time doing so.  I am not familiar with using a lot of syntax in data analysis so the information was a little overwhelming--but I will continue to study it.

It might be helpful to say that this is a program evaluation study, a pretty big one too.  The data that I've described are what we are examining for the implementation study.  The program staff want to know if dosage (# of interventions) and intervention type impacts client behavior, measured through various assessments repeatedly every 4 months.  Since the program participants are very diverse, they also want to know if certain populations benefit more or less.  I had initially thought a multiple regression analysis would work but the more that I read, the more I thought perhaps a time series model or repeated measures analysis would work. If this explanation helps and you have more ideas, I'd appreciate it.  Thanks.
