The Wyoming Institute for Disabilities is inviting organizations across the network to join the newly formed UCEDD LEND ECHO Collaborative. These monthly calls are open to any UCEDD or LEND program that is currently replicating or interested in implementing the ECHO model. The collaborative will allow UCEDD, LEND, and partner agencies to share successes, challenges, and strategies in using the ECHO model to build capacity throughout their programs supporting individuals with developmental disabilities.
The UCEDD LEND ECHO Collaborative will host monthly calls that include program and topic presentations, emerging research, and opportunities for topic groups to meet in areas related to employment, behavioral health, education, and pediatrics, among others. The collaborative offers participants a unique opportunity to build multi-state collaborations, share resources, and recruit for research.
Interested UCEDD and LEND programs can below to stay informed about the collaborative launch. The meetings start April 24, 2023, and will continue on the fourth Monday of every month from 1:00-2:00 pm Eastern, 12:00 - 1:00 pm Central, 11:00-12:00 Mountain, and 10:00-11:00 am Pacific.
