A Creative and Person-Centered Day Service Model – Growing Older with Lifelong Intellectual Disabilities: When Dementia is Suspected or Diagnosed
This Project ECHO series is a free, practical, case-based education program for health care and human service providers who want to enhance their knowledge, competence, and performance related to the care of people with intellectual and developmental disabilities affected by dementia. Each ECHO session will include a short presentation by a topic expert, followed by a case study submitted in advance by an ECHO participant site, and then open discussion to learn from one another. The NTG and URI/VCU GWEPs will be holding their 11th series of ECHO programs on topics related to intellectual disability and dementia. The theme for the Fall 2025 Series is Post-Diagnostic Supports.
