Future webinars in the series will be recorded and made available to view in the Illinois Schools Step Up Toolkit on the IASA website and IASA app. About ECHO-Chicago Since 2010, the ECHO-Chicago program at the University of Chicago has used the innovative Extension for Community Health Outcomes (ECHO) workforce development model to build community capacity to address common health conditions. Using high-quality videoconference technology, ECHO-Chicago brings subject matter experts and community providers together to discuss real-world challenges in implementing evidence-based practices and recommendations. Unlike a webinar, we create a highly interactive setting where participants and facilitators alike can see, hear, and learn from each other, similar to physical presence but without the need for COVID-19 for Educators @IEANEA travel. Training is case-based and focuses on practical knowledge that participants can implement in their work. For more information about ECHO-Chicago, please visit https://www.echo-chicago.org.
