Organization & Financing

The Office of Organization and Financing serves the Center for Mental Health Services (CMHS) and its parent agency, the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), by providing information on the funding and administration of mental health services. These activities include data collection and analysis, cost estimation, services evaluation, policy assessment, and technical assistance. The office forges relationships with other agencies and collaborates with States, health care providers, consumers, families, and benefits managers to improve the effectiveness of the organization and financing of mental health services.
