This article highlights research on the distribution of the behavioral health workforce in socially disadvantaged communities, conducted by our partners at the University of North Carolina's Behavioral Health Workforce Research Center. The research examined the geographic distribution of three types of behavioral health clinicians (BHCs) across areas of varying disadvantage in the U.S., using the Area Disadvantage Index (ADI). Results revealed that areas with higher disadvantage had fewer BHCs, with rural, high-ADI areas having the least. The study suggests that the uneven distribution of BHCs highlights the need for reforms to ensure a more equitable workforce, particularly in high-need, socially disadvantaged neighborhoods.
