Welcome

Available to citizens statewide, Virginia’s public mental health, intellectual disability and substance abuse services system is comprised of 16 state facilities and 40 locally-run community services boards (CSBs) The CSBs and facilities serve children and adults who have or who are at risk of mental illness, serious emotional disturbance, intellectual disabilities, or substance use disorders.

DMHMRSAS has been working with a broad network of stakeholders to transform our system to enhance community-based care for individuals, make overdue infrastructure improvements to our state facilities and to change the way services are delivered. Our strategic plans reflect efforts to fully embrace self-determination, empowerment, and recovery for individuals in our service system. We have also been further examining our system and working with state and local leadership to determine the services that will be needed in the future.
