In May 2025, the Cook County Office of Behavioral Health (OBH) issued the Regional Behavioral Health Strategic Plan for Cook County. The plan provides a comprehensive roadmap for the county’s regional behavioral health system. The elements in the strategic plan were informed through a multidisciplinary group of providers, community members, patients, and governmental entities who were first convened by OBH in 2023. The plan represents our collective commitment to building a behavioral health system that is responsive, resilient, and equitable.
