The Nebraska Department of Health and Human Services Division of Behavioral Health Services contracts with six Regional Behavioral Health Networks across the state to ensure access to mental health and substance abuse services for all Nebraskans. The Regions contract with local community-based providers of services to meet the needs of individuals that promote services close to their home and support system. Additional services are provided in the state-operated Regional Centers for those with serious and persistent mental illness in need of acute inpatient or secure residential services.
