The Mid-America Mountain Plains and the South Southwest Regional Addiction Technology Transfer Center are hosting the Women and Stimulants ECHO Series. This series will utilize a Project ECHO format to provide case-based learning and consultation for substance use and other health care providers working with women who use stimulants, including cocaine and methamphetamines. Using the Zoom videoconferencing platform, providers will be able to connect directly with leading experts in the field to build their capacity to provide evidence-based care. Each 90-minute session will include a brief didactic presentation and an interactive discussion on two de-identified client cases.
Registration is limited to 100 participants per session. Please register for each individual session by clicking on the session titles below. See webpage for detailed descriptions of the sessions and information regarding CEs. To learn more about what a Project ECHO session is like, view this brief video.
