Ohio Department of Mental Health and Addiction Services Rebrands as Ohio Department of Behavioral Health
The future of behavioral healthcare in Ohio is taking a significant step forward today as the Ohio Department of Mental Health and Addiction Services officially becomes the Ohio Department of Behavioral Health.
The change reflects the agency’s ongoing commitment to meeting the evolving needs of Ohioans and aligning with national best practices.
A recent national review revealed that Ohio was among the few remaining states using the term “addiction” in its department title.
While widely recognized, the term can carry stigmatizing connotations for individuals seeking help.
As part of the rebrand, the department has also launched a new logo and website domain: DBH.ohio.gov.
