Oregon ECHO Network Rural Advisory Panel

Our Rural Advisory Panel (RAP) members help ensure OEN education programs reflect the needs and priorities of rural Oregon communities. RAP members contribute in the following ways:

  • Vote on potential ECHO topics that are most relevant to their communities

  • Connect OEN with potential expert speakers for ECHO programs and commuity and regional resources

  • Share insight into local healthcare access challenges

  • Promote upcoming ECHO programs to health professionals in their area
