The National Behavioral Health Network for Tobacco and Cancer Control (NBHN) is excited to announce the CARE (Cancer, Acceptance, Resilience, Empowerment) ECHO Series. ECHO — Extension for Community Healthcare Outcomes — is a collaborative model of education and care management that helps professionals provide expert-level care and education wherever they live.

Alongside faculty and subject-matter experts, ECHO participants will learn to address psychosocial considerations in mental health and substance use populations across the cancer care continuum. The series will cover tobacco-related cancer screening and assessment, access to cancer care and survivorship and thrivership. Participants will focus on creating opportunities for mental wellbeing via collaborative cancer care and shared decision-making.

Register for the upcoming office hour with the ECHO faculty on Thursday, April 4, 1-2 p.m. ET to learn more about this opportunity!

After this ECHO, participants will be able to:

• Identify tobacco- and cancer-related disparities for individuals with mental health and/or substance use disorders.
• Learn strategies to implement psychosocial considerations along the cancer care continuum.
• Explore opportunities to improve health outcomes for individuals with co-occurring tobacco use, cancer and mental wellbeing challenges
