Who We Are
At Early Childhood ECHO, we believe that every child deserves a strong foundation for lifelong success. That’s why we bring together early childhood professionals, families, and experts to create a collaborative virtual space where knowledge is shared, challenges are addressed, and meaningful solutions are developed. Our program is designed to equip caregivers and providers with the tools, resources, and confidence they need to support children’s developmental and behavioral health, especially in rural communities. By building on existing systems and fostering connections, we’re shaping a future where every child has the opportunity to thrive.


Our Mission
Our mission is to systematize support for families and early childhood professionals, empowering them with the tools and knowledge they need to address developmental and behavioral health challenges in children birth to eight years old. We strive to create a sustainable learning model that builds on existing systems while fostering collaboration and innovation in early childhood care.
Our Goals
- Provide virtual learning and tele mentoring opportunities for families and early childhood professionals to increase developmental, behavioral, and mental health knowledge.
- Maintain and advance the ECHO Model for early childhood developmental, behavioral, and mental health professional and family learning through collaboration with statewide partners.
- Measure outcomes through an adaptable evaluation model.
- Provide a digital library of early childhood resources.


Professional Development
In addition to the invaluable skills, resources, and strategies that our participants gain through EC ECHO, we also offer free professional development. We offer one contact hour per EC ECHO session participants attend.
