Great News! We’ve concluded the planning for our next advanced MOI ECHO series. Registration is scheduled to open in December. Keep an eye on this page and our social media channels for the official launch date and updated curriculum details!
The landscape of perinatal care remains complex. Clinical reports underscore the persistent challenges related to maternal mortality and complications tied to substance use. This highlights the need to address associated factors, such as co-occurring mental health disorders.
This requires providers to go beyond standard SUD training. It is essential to implement trauma-informed interventions and integrated care strategies to support pregnant individuals struggling with these challenges, ensuring the health and well-being of both parent and child.
Join our Interprofessional ECHO to collaborate directly with a panel of Maternal Child Health and Addiction Medicine specialists and your peers. You will learn best practices and evidence-based recommendations for advanced MOUD protocols, integrated behavioral health, and structural advocacy strategies. Together, we will develop the interprofessional competency necessary to ensure that all birthing individuals in New Jersey receive seamless, non-judgmental care and support within their communities.
