ECHO Substance Use in Idaho (2027)
2nd and 4th Thursdays, Noon – 1:00 p.m. MT
ECHO's Substance Use in Idaho series supports clinicians and healthcare professionals in delivering evidence-based, whole-person care for individuals affected by substance use disorders, including opioid use disorder and chronic pain. The series provides practical strategies for screening, assessment, treatment, recovery support, and care coordination.
Through free, one-hour virtual sessions, participants learn from an interdisciplinary panel of experts in addiction medicine, psychiatry, pharmacy, social work, and counseling while engaging in case-based discussions with colleagues from across Idaho. Participants gain practical tools to apply evidence-based practices, strengthen confidence in managing complex cases, and improve outcomes for patients, families, and communities.
