The Northeast Nebraska Behavioral Health Network is the culmination of 30 + organizations working together to address a shared mission of expanding the behavioral health workforce in northeastern and northcentral Nebraska. Out of the work, five partners created the Northeast Nebraska Behavioral Health Network to further that mission. Our primary goal is to enhance access to behavioral health and mental health
services primarily through increasing the number of behavioral health and mental health providers and professionals in our service area.

Our Board is a dedicated group of professionals that bring executive leadership in
behavioral health workforce development to the challenge at hand.
