Last updated: 5/15/24 - Project ECHO: Climate and Health: Towards Climate-Informed Care & Advocacy
4/27/2022-7/6/2022
Health care workers of all types are highly respected in their communities and well-positioned to inform public opinion, but many are under-informed about the health impacts of climate change. They do not usually broach these issues with patients even when directly relevant to the presenting problem. Most do not advocate at the community level. However, healthcare workers are ideal messengers to share factual concerns along with hope-based and helpful guidance that supports tangible individual and community actions. This course will prepare healthcare workers to advocate effectively and appropriately to reduce the effects of climate change on health. - Project ECHO: Keeping Students Safe: Practical Strategies for Supporting Students in Mental Health Distress
4/5/2022- 5/31/2022
This interactive, web-based learning series for school staff in New Hampshire will provide tools to better support the increased number of students experiencing mental health distress. Students are experiencing crisis levels of anxiety, depression, trauma, and suicidal ideation. Rooted in the pandemic and loss of in-person classes, school staff are also reporting delayed coping and socialization skills and insufficient backup from outside behavioral health counselors and facilities. Our goal, based on needs identified by schools, is to provide resources for the most urgent mental health issues facing school staff today, along with an opportunity for discussing de-identified situations and receiving peer support - Naloxone Opioid Overdose Intervention (PDF)
