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).”

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)


Prior to 2003, three of the four components, OMH, OAS (CODAAP), and IDS (MRS), were units of the Philadelphia Department of Public Health. These three offices had been administering county-operated behavioral health and intellectual disability programs for over 35 years.

The fourth component, CBH, is Philadelphia’s not-for-profit managed care entity. The city established CBH in 1997 to manage behavioral health care services for Philadelphia’s 475,000 Medicaid recipients. The creation of CBH served as the catalyst for the development of Philadelphia’s current behavioral health system.

DBHIDS provides its services via a network of mental health and intellectual disability provider agencies. The department also partners with the Philadelphia School District, child welfare systems, and judicial systems to promote recovery, resilience & self-determination for people in recovery.
