The Division of Public and Behavioral Health (DPBH) is a division of the Department of Human Services (DHS), which falls within the Executive Branch of the State of Nevada. Through funding and direction provided by the Nevada State Legislature and the federal government, DPBH carries out various missions to improve public health and behavioral health outcomes in Nevada. Positioned at the state level, DPBH primarily serves to coordinate resources for local and tribal partners in Nevada, although it also provides direct services. DPBH consists of four branches: Administrative Services, Clinical Services, Community Services, and Regulatory and Planning Services. Each of these branches consists of bureaus and programs that provide everything from grant funding to direct behavioral health services to some of Nevada’s most vulnerable populations.
