Vinland National Center

A Different Approach

to Addiction Treatment

Vinland National Center provides behavioral health services to individuals with cognitive impairments.

Since 1990, Vinland has provided drug and alcohol addiction treatment for people with cognitive disabilities. We were the first center in the country to design a treatment program to meet the unique needs of individuals living with brain injuries.

Vinland has developed a strong national reputation for providing top-quality integrative services to individuals with traumatic brain injuries, mental illness, learning disabilities, and/or other cognitive disabilities. It is well-known that a comprehensive approach like Vinland’s benefits individuals who have been unsuccessful in other treatment settings.

Problem Gambling

Outpatient Treatment

Problem gambling can strike anyone, regardless of race, gender, age, socioeconomic status, or level of education. In our work with all varieties of addiction, Vinland has learned that problem gambling does not occur in isolation. In many cases, it occurs in the company of co-presenting issues. For example, gambling disorder & alcohol/drug addiction are frequently part of a dual diagnosis. It is estimated that 10-15% of those with substance use disorder have a co-occurring gambling disorder.
