ECHO Autism

ECHO is an “All Teach- All Learn” model for collaborative learning. Participants learn from each other, the MIND ECHO Core Team learns from participants, and participants learn from the MIND ECHO Core Team. Participants are expected to actively participate in sessions. All ECHO sessions are held on Zoom.

Who participates in ECHO?

ECHO Core Team members include an psychologist, behavior analyst, educator, social worker, and more. ECHO Participants will include advocates, allied health providers, behavioral health providers, case managers, educators, family members, nurses, physicians, social workers and more. 

What can I expect during an ECHO session?

ECHO sessions are structured to include a spotlight talk from a guest speaker, a case presentation, and facilitation discussions. As an ECHO participant, you will have the opportunity to present a case, network with other participants, and expand your knowledge of care related to neurodevelopmental disabilities.

What will I learn from ECHO Autism?

ECHO Autism topics will rotate throughout the year and new curriculum is being developed. Some examples of topics include: ECHO Autism: Primary Care Providers, ECHO Autism: Mental Health; ECHO Autism: Early Intervention.
