Region V Systems is a Nebraska-based nonprofit organization focused on coordinating and overseeing publicly funded behavioral health services across its service area in southeast Nebraska. Established by state statute in 1974 and later reconstituted as a Behavioral Health Authority, the organization is responsible for comprehensive planning, integrating and coordinating service delivery, budgeting, performance monitoring, and corrective action to ensure access to high-quality, cost-effective behavioral health services for the population it serves. Serving the 16-county region that covers about 9,308 square miles, Region V Systems supports the public safety and health of consumers by aligning resources and services to meet community needs. Its work targets improved consumer access and service quality within the behavioral health sector, operating within the nonprofit sector to advance regional coordination of publicly funded mental health and substance abuse services. A recent development noted is a collaboration with Lincoln Public Schools to present community health and well-being initiatives for youth, reflecting ongoing regional partnerships to support outreach and prevention efforts.
