Project SCOPE: Supporting Children of the Opioid Epidemic

Description

ICI's MNLEND program created a network of partner organizations across Minnesota to enhance developmental screening, monitoring, and education for families dealing with the effects of opioid exposure. ICI's effort was part of the Project SCOPE national training initiative. Under the initiative, MNLEND assembled a statewide interdisciplinary team to complete immersion training in ECHO-SCOPE, a guided practice model that uses knowledge-sharing videoconference networks led by expert training teams. The model brought the latest evidence-based training in disability and other services to families, educators, providers, and administrators in their homes, schools, and offices.

ICI’s Minnesota Leadership Education in Neurodevelopmental and Related Disabilities (MNLEND) fellowship program coordinated the effort, in cooperation with the ICI Telehealth Laboratory and its Learn the Signs, Act Early autism intervention team.

Three series were completed and recorded in 2021-2022. Recordings of each series' sessions can be found at the Project SCOPE YouTube channel and in the following playlists:
