Alcohol and Other Drug AND Mental Health Services Directory

Introduction
The Northern Territory Council of Social Service (NTCOSS) and the Northern
Territory Mental Health Coalition are pleased to provide this Directory of Alcohol
and Other Drug (AOD) and Mental Health Services (the Directory) for your
information.
The Directory is intended to enable users to easily locate and connect with AOD and
mental health services. It focuses on not-for-profit and government organisations
providing AOD, mental health treatment and community mental health services
within the Northern Territory. It does not include private practitioners or providers
of these services.
To cater for services working across borders, the Directory includes website links
to relevant peak organisations in other states.
There is also a section including links to useful websites that provide information
about AOD and mental health issues.
We know that people who use AOD and mental health services often have a
range of related and complex needs for which they may require support from
other types of services. In this Directory, we have not tried to achieve exhaustive
coverage of all of those related services. Rather, we have tried to focus on
organisations providing direct care or support for people with AOD and mental
health issues. There are other existing directories that can be utilised to provide
links to a broader range of services (e.g. domestic violence, housing) beyond the
scope of this Directory.
