There are programs offered for DWI clients only, due to the type of their crime and the requirement to meet certain requirements demanded by the legal system. If you've been charged with a non-violent drug related offense, it is very likely that you may be granted the opportunity to receive treatment in lieu of other consequences such as jail time. In most states, the alternatives to jail are recovery programs which include alcohol classes, group counseling such as Alcoholics Anonymous and in some cases community service. Some states allow offenders to take part in the aforementioned activities and upon meeting certain requirements are even allowed to drive with a monitoring device installed in their vehicle. There are treatment facilities that are inpatient and cater specifically to DWI clients. This will usually be something that is determined by the judge and usually proposed as an alternative sentence by your attorney, if you are addicted to drugs or alcohol and it is only your first or sometimes second DWI charge.
Addiction recovery programs in Essex that treat DWI clients only abide by the instructions demanded by the courts and help clients comply with all the requirements of their sentence and/or probation. In most instances offenders will need to plead guilty to their offense, and will be regularly tested for substance use, be required to make restitution if there are any victims involved, and are required to make regular appearances and check in with the courts, their probation/parole officer, etc. This sounds like a lot, but it is better than spending up to two years in jail.
