Next Series: Planning Underway for January 2026

The SUD ECHO team is actively finalizing the advanced curriculum and session schedule. Full details and registration will be available soon!

The landscape of substance use treatment is constantly evolving, driven by the emergence of high-potency synthetic opioids (HPSOs) and the prevalence of complex polysubstance use. To maintain clinical effectiveness, healthcare providers must rapidly adapt their strategies. This advanced Project ECHO series, led by experts from Rutgers New Jersey Medical School and Rowan Medicine, provides the critical, evidence-based training needed to manage patients in this dynamic environment.

This series goes beyond foundational knowledge. We offer a safe space for interprofessional teams to engage in collaborative, case-based learning, focusing on the sophisticated application of Medication for Opioid Use Disorder (MOUD) in complex scenarios. The curriculum integrates clinical best practices through five dedicated Simulation Lab sessions, providing hands-on experience in high-acuity interventions like overdose response and transitions of care.

Join us to gain valuable insights into preventing and managing complications related to the evolving drug supply (including Xylazine and Fentanyl), addressing co-occurring mental health disorders, and developing team-based advocacy strategies to dismantle systemic barriers to integrated, equitable SUD care. By equipping yourself with these advanced tools, you can significantly enhance patient outcomes and support sustained recovery.
