Time to Act ECHO: Mental Health Across the Lifespan
Time to Act ECHO: Mental Health Across the Lifespan is a statewide training initiative intended to build provider capacity and confidence in applying evidence-based practice around topics that deal with mental health across the lifespan. The ECHO series will help enhance professional networking throughout the state by bringing together providers from across disciplines to discuss and learn about important topics related to mental health across the lifespan. Participants will receive highly relevant professional development, case-based learning, and opportunities to network with other professionals. This will result in teams that are trained more effectively to work with their clients.
The target audience of these sessions is early childhood providers, behavioral health providers, administrators, mental health community clinics, social workers, pediatricians and other medical providers, and family members.
These sessions are FREE for all participants.
Sessions will be held the 3rd Wednesday of each month from
12:00 p.m. - 1:30 p.m. MST via Zoom video conferencing technology.
