Regional Behavioral Health Authorities
Nebraska is split into six “regions.” These are local units of governments that the state partners with to do planning and service implementation.
Each county taking part in a region appoints one county commissioner to sit on a regional board. They will represent that county and participate in the decision making of the board. The region is staffed by an administrator who in turn hires additional personnel.
The map below shows Nebraska Behavioral Health Regions. The Table that follows provides a list of Administrators.
The regions purchase services from providers in their area. If necessary, services are purchased from other service providers across the state.
