Project Description:

Summary: Community focused grant provided telehealth services to schools. KanDO is a disaster mental health grant with some anticipated carry-forward funds. LEND faculty who are funded on this grant include myself, Linda Heitzman Powell, and Eve-Lynn Nelson (she's the PI). There are lots of activities, but the ones counted in NIRS are the ECHOs we've done, some CARE workshops, and the ongoing PCIT training. This grant is part of Eve Lynn's larger Telehealth ROCKS program- which encompasses several grants all focused on telehealth in rural KS and mental health.
