There are treatment services available for DWI clients only, because of the nature of their crime and the need to carry out specific obligations demanded by the legal system. If you're convicted of a non-violent substance abuse related offense, it is very likely that you may be granted the chance to go to treatment instead of other penalties such as jail time. In most states, the alternatives to jail are rehab programs which include alcohol abuse education, group meetings such as AA and in some cases community service. Some states allow offenders to take part in the aforementioned consequences and upon complying with certain conditions are even allowed to drive their vehicle with an alcohol monitoring device in their vehicle. There are programs that are inpatient and specifically treat DWI clients. This would be something that is determined by the judge and very likely presented as an alternative sentence by your attorney, if you are suffering with alcoholism and this is only your first or sometimes second offense.
Drug and Alcohol rehab facilities in Battle Creek that treat DWI clients only follow the instructions required by the courts and help offenders meet all the conditions of their sentence and/or probation. In most instances offenders will have to plead guilty to their charge, and will be regularly tested for drug and alcohol use, have to make restitution if there are any victims involved, and be required to make regular appearances and check in with the courts, their parole officer, etc. This sounds like a lot, but it is better than having to spend up to two years in jail.
