of Northeast Ohio

Our Shared Vision

Behavioral health is healthcare.

Everyone in our regions can access the quality behavioral health care they need because their workforce reflects the communities it serves, is culturally and linguistically competent and has the capacity to meet everyone's behavioral health needs.


Guiding Principles


This framework identifies the key priority areas necessary to achieve our vision. These priority areas, referred to as strategic pillars, guide the coalition's actions, investments, and long-term goals. The coalition’s goals are to increase support, build evidence, and lead the scale-up of best practices that build the behavioral health workforce that our region needs.

A dedicated committee was formed for each strategic pillar, bringing the framework to life through focused action and collaboration.
