In October 2003, the City of Philadelphia created the Department of Behavioral Health and Mental Retardation Services (DBH/MRS) to integrate its behavioral health care and mental retardation services into a single comprehensive system. Beginning in March 2011, a federal law required that the term “mental retardation” be changed to “intellectual disability.” As a result, the department’s name became “Department of Behavioral Health and Intellectual disAbility Services (DBHIDS).

The Philadelphia Department of Behavioral Health and Intellectual disAbility Services (DBHIDS) introduces itself as "Promoting Recovery, Resilience and Self-Determination", and it gives the following descriptive information:

Welcome to Philadelphia’s Department of Behavioral Health and Intellectual disAbility Services (DBHIDS). The City of Philadelphia has integrated its behavioral health care and intellectual disability services into one comprehensive system.

DBHIDS components provide services through a network of agencies while collaborating with the Philadelphia School District, child welfare and judicial systems, and other stakeholders.

The DBHIDS management team and our employees embrace a vision of recovery, resilience, and self-determination. We continue to shift to a model of care directed by the person in recovery. In this model, professional treatment is one aspect among many that supports people in managing their own conditions while building their own recovery resources. This recovery process should be viewed as a lifetime journey.

Transformation to a recovery orientation in both addictions and mental health becomes possible by focusing on the central role of individuals and families in responding to, managing, and overcoming these serious illnesses. This focus must be an organizing point for the entire system.

We also strive to help people with intellectual disability live self-determined lives in their communities by providing quality supports and services.

DBHIDS has four components:

  • Office of Mental Health (OMH)
  • Office of Addiction Services (OAS), formerly known as the Coordinating Office for Drug and Alcohol Abuse Programs (CODAAP)
  • Intellectual disAbility Services (IDS)
  • Community Behavioral Health (CBH)
