What is an ECHO?

Project ECHO is an innovative, solutions-based learning experience that connects professionals with
specialized knowledge and situation-based learning to address complex community or organizational
issues.

The sessions are designed to equip public and private sector professionals with actionable strategies to increase resilience for the growing number of older adults facing rapid environmental change. New research and community approaches provide innovations for adapting ongoing efforts and developing new partnerships.
