Substance Abuse & Mental Health Services Administration

SAMHSA has Regional Administrators in each of the 10 Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Regional Offices.

HHS & SAMHSA Regions

The Regional Administrators will help SAMHSA reach out to and provide information for States, Territories, Tribes, providers, communities and other stakeholders, whether about funding opportunities, federal policies affecting them, or disaster preparedness and response. They will also make it easier for SAMHSA to collaborate with other HHS colleagues in the regional offices and be better informed about behavioral health needs throughout the country.

These 10 Regional Administrators as a group bring significant experience in substance abuse; mental health; prevention; health care financing; disaster preparedness, response and recovery; federal, state and local government; as well as the behavioral health needs of particular populations such as Native Americans, youth, those in forensic settings, persons with serious mental illness, and persons in recovery from addiction.
