About

The UCLA Division of Population Behavioral Health (DPBH) is committed to enhancing the mental and physical wellbeing of individuals and families through the promotion of a continuum of behavioral health, research and education strategically integrated into healthcare, home, educational and community settings with focus on improving access and equity for marginalized and under-resourced children and families.

Through its partnerships, the Division works to anticipate policy issues and identify solutions to positively influence access, regulation, and optimal clinical outcomes for patients and their families. The Division also includes the UCLA Population Behavioral Health Training Institute, which provides access to an online learning center for large-scale dissemination and support of evidence-based practices inside the UCLA Health System and within community systems of care.
