The Hispanic/Latino Behavioral Health Center of Excellence is established to advance and support the sustainability of behavioral health equity by promoting community driven, culturally grounded and person-centered prevention, intervention, multiple pathways of recovery, and recovery supports for diverse Hispanic and Latine communities. We serve as a resource for mental health and substance use providers, primary care providers, community-based and faith-based organizations, research institutions, Hispanic -Serving Institutions (HSIs) of higher education, peer and recovery support service providers, as well as state, regional, local, and federal entities.
