- Provider secondary trauma stress
- Strategies to support caregivers and the impacted children
- Advocacy Strategies
ECHO MOdel
The Wyoming Institute for Disabilities trained sites on implementation of the ECHO model, designed to increase workforce capacity through education on best practice implementation.
Project SCOPE adopted the ECHO Model to provide ongoing resources and support for participants. The heart of the ECHO model is its knowledge-sharing networks, where subject matter experts meet virtually with a community of learners representing interdisciplinary teams of participants to share knowledge and improve implementation of best practices.
From SCOPE Participants:
“Our experience implementing Project SCOPE has taught us how effective this teaching model can be, especially with regard to reaching providers and professionals around the state who would otherwise not have ready access to this information. We will certainly keep this in mind when considering trainings on other related topics.”
