Groups We Treat
The Breaking Ground program is designed specifically for professionals in the mining and construction industries who are facing addiction or mental health challenges. We understand the unique pressures of these physically demanding, high-stress careers and tailor our care to meet the needs of those who support our communities everyday.
Mining Professionals
The mining industry is one of the most demanding and high-risk professions in the world. Itâs no wonder that mining professionals have some of the highest rates of substance misuse and mental health challenges according to the CDC. Long hours, physical exhaustion, isolation from family, and exposure to dangerous conditions can take a serious toll on both mental and physical health. Many miners face chronic pain from years of hard labor, leading to a higher risk of opioid misuse or self-medication with alcohol and other substances.
Beyond the physical strain, the mining lifestyle often leaves little room for emotional recovery. Extended time away from home, job insecurity, and the constant pressure to perform can contribute to anxiety, depression, and burnout. Unfortunately, stigma around mental health in these tough, close-knit environments can make it difficult for miners to seek help early on, allowing struggles to escalate over time.
Construction Workers
Behind the grit and skill that drive the construction industry lies a culture where pushing through pain and stress is often seen as part of the job. Construction workers regularly face tight deadlines, unpredictable schedules, and physically demanding labor that can lead to injuries and chronic pain. Many turn to prescription medications, such as opioids, illicit drugs, or alcohol to cope, habits that can easily spiral into dependence when untreated. This reality is reflected in a CDC study that found around 15% of all workplace overdoses occur in the construction industry.
Mental health struggles are also common in the field. Job insecurity, seasonal layoffs, and the pressure to maintain productivity can create ongoing financial and emotional stress. The âtough it outâ mentality thatâs deeply ingrained in construction culture can make it difficult for workers to admit when theyâre struggling or to ask for help before things get worse.
