Abstract

SAMHSA’s Office of Behavioral Health Equity (OBHE) is the office within SAMHSA that has a dedicated mission to ensure that underserved, under-resourced communities are equitably included in SAMHSA’s mission. Under the leadership of the Biden-Harris Administration, equity has become a driving force to redesign behavioral health systems to address underserved groups' unique and high-burden challenges effectively, delineated in the Executive Order by race, ethnicity, religion, income, geography, gender identity, sexual orientation, and disability. These efforts have also emphasized the significant role of community voice in advancing equity.
