A Pivotal Time in Behavioral Health Care
BHECN was created by the Nebraska Legislature in 2009 and housed at the UNMC. It was charged with helping recruit, train and retain behavioral health workers.
BHECN’s work is more important than ever as the state faces a critical shortage of behavioral health workers at a time when -- thanks in large part to the COVID-19 pandemic -- the need for behavioral health care is higher than it has ever been.Recent News
