Depression
Depression is common in children and adolescents; however, identification and treatment can be complex. Our Depression ECHO provides an efficient way to learn and practice, supported by psychiatry, psychology, and primary care provider peers. The goal is to improve the primary care provider’s comfort when managing treatment of depression and provide a network of resources to ensure patients receive the right care, in the right place, at the right time.
