New England PTTC ECHO: Reducing Vaping Across New England by Building Prevention Competency & Capacity

March 19, 2020 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm

Project ECHO®
Project ECHO® (Extension for Community Healthcare Outcomes) is an evidence-based method developed by researchers at the University of New Mexico. This ECHO will link prevention initiatives across the New England to share their expertise across a virtual network via case-based learning to advance prevention knowledge and practices to promote health in their
communities.

Program Structure:
The 9-month program begins in September 2019 with a Project ECHO® on boarding orientation for faculty and one cohort participants. Following the orientation, the program will offer a series of virtual learning sessions, called teleECHO® sessions, between October and May. Initially the teleECHO® sessions will be held twice a month (first and third Thursdays) during October and November and then monthly on the third Thursday. The sessions are led by a multidisciplinary team of specialists, who may include a prevention specialist, a researcher,
policy/state leader, addiction specialist, recovery peer, provider, pharmacist, librarian, a communication specialist and/ community leader. The faculty will commit to presenting a 10-15-minute didactic presentation on a relevant content area. Prevention Continuing Education will be made available

Learning Objectives:

  • Speed the dissemination and adoption of prevention evidence-based protocols,
    guidelines and practices.
  • Share prevention efforts that are occurring across the communities in New England.
  • Build prevention capacity across communities/states.
  • Promote the ability to collect and analyze data.
