Climate change affects nearly every aspect of society, including our health. The Climate Change ECHO program equips health care and public health professionals with the necessary skills to treat patients amid climate change. This program includes evidence-based training on: the science of climate change, climate-related health effects and the most effective communication skills.
Regionally and nationally regarded speakers – from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Environmental Defense Fund and many academic medical centers across the United States and internationally – will share their expertise and provide mentorship for participants.

Sessions are on Wednesdays from noon to 1 p.m. Mountain Time (6 p.m. to 7 p.m. Coordinated Universal Time).
Each session offers continuing education credits, details can be found in our weekly email announcement.
