Residential Drug and Alcohol Treatment

Located in Loretto, Minnesota

20 miles west of Minneapolis

Drug and Alcohol Addiction Treatment

If you have struggled to keep up with group material or assignments at other addiction treatment centers, Vinland Center could be a better program for you. Our addiction rehab program is designed for individuals* with memory issues, learning disabilities, and/or other cognitive impairments.

Vinland provides drug and alcohol treatment for adults with cognitive impairments. Our staff members strive to make all possible accommodations for cognitive deficits and adaptations for individual learning styles.

Vinland is a fully-accredited substance abuse treatment center licensed by the State of Minnesota. We use evidence-based approaches to addiction treatment. Our staff are highly-trained and licensed professionals.

At our residential treatment program, we provide integrated mental health services. For individuals struggling with a dual diagnosis of substance abuse and mental health issues, integrated treatment provides better recovery outcomes.

*Please note: as of February 2020, Vinland's residential program serves only male-identifying individuals, while our outpatient facility serves all genders. We also ceased Family Programming to include visiting family members at that time. If you need a list of residential or inpatient referral options that have worked well with our female-identifying clients in the past, feel free to reach out to mollyg@vinlandcenter.org.
