In response to the COVID-19 crisis, MHDD ECHO registration is opening back up to provide an opportunity for national conversation and resource sharing among MH and I/DD providers. This includes past ECHO participants, waitlisted registrants, and our current cohort. 

 

To register, please visit this link: bit.ly/MHDD-ECHO-winter2020 

 

If you are already registered in the current cohort, there is no need to re-register. 

 

• Please note that registration does not guarantee a spot in an ongoing or upcoming ECHO series. We will be in touch to confirm your participation. Confirmation emails will be distributed in mid-December. 

MHDD ECHO sessions run for 90 minutes from 10:00 - 11:30am (Alaska time) every other Thursday: April 2nd, April 16th, April 30th. 

• Mental Health & Developmental Disabilities ECHO offers a virtual network of real-time access to experienced experts in the field of mental health for people with developmental disabilities. Through the use of a hub and spoke model, MHDD ECHO gives participants the opportunity to take an active role in rich dialogue with the hub team (subject matter experts) and with their fellow spokes (participants) in an interdisciplinary teaching and learning environment. Each session includes a brief lecture, de-identified case presentation, and open discussion facilitated by the hub team. The Winter/Spring MHDD hub team includes a psychologist, a clinician, an applied behavior analyst, a parent, and self advocate guests with personal experience. CMEs are available at no cost to participants, on a per session basis, by completing the post-session survey.

 

If you have any questions, please contact ECHO Clinic Coordinator Faith Kelly at xxxxxx@alaskachd.org

 

Be well! 

 

Sincerely,

Faith Kelly
