About Us

What We Do

The Oregon Health Authority (OHA) Child and Family Behavioral Health (CFBH) team elevates behavioral health for children, young adults and their families by:

  • Incorporating System of Care values, developmental science and trauma-informed approaches to care.
  • Championing effective and efficient statewide behavioral health services, support and safety.
This has a positive impact on all of Oregon's child-serving systems, including schools, child welfare and juvenile justice.
  • When children get access to the right behavioral health services when they need them and for as long as they need them, children get better.
  • When they get better, they can stay at home, stay in school and be successful in their communities.

To improve services to children and adolescents, OHA works with partners to build out Oregon's continuum of care to address the complex needs of children and families within their local communities. Visit the CFBH strategic planning page to learn more.
