The goal of the national training initiative was to increase the capacity of the states and communities most impacted by the opioid crisis to support children with NAS, trauma and other related exposure and their families effectively. Through the national training, 14 sites were trained in replicating ECHO SCOPE in their states. Between 2019-2022 there have been 35 ECHO SCOPE implementations reaching 9,391 participants from 25 states, across 274 sessions for a total of 383 training and mentorship hours. After 3 years, 141,085 children were impacted by ECHO SCOPE.
Over the three-year period, implementation sites conducted evaluations for each ECHO SCOPE session. These evaluations were designed to measure 4 components: core knowledge and skills, reach, ability to implement knowledge and skills, and intention to implement.
Most participants reported improvement in their
knowledge (98%)
motivation (97%)
quality of practice (92%)
skills (95%)
Participants (84%) reported that they had implemented new practices. Aditionally, participants (92%) reported that they were likely or extremely likely to continue using new knowledge and/or skills.
Related to professional development, participants (85%) felt that attending sessions helped them to feel more connected to other professionals, and they (90%) agreed that they had expanded their professional network by participating.
