There are programs offered for DWI clients only, on account of the nature of their crime and the requirement to fulfill specific obligations demanded by the courts. If you've been charged with a non-violent drug or alcohol related crime, it is very possible that you could be granted the opportunity to receive rehabilitation in lieu of other consequences such as jail time. In most states, the alternatives to jail are rehabilitation programs which include classes, group meetings and therapy such as Alcoholics Anonymous and in some cases community service. Some states allow people to take part in the aforementioned activities and upon complying with certain conditions are even granted permission to drive their vehicle with an alcohol monitoring device installed in their car. There are rehab programs that are inpatient and specifically treat DWI offenders. This will usually be something that would be determined by the judge and commonly presented as an alternative sentence by your attorney, if you are suffering with alcoholism and this is only your first or second DWI charge.
Drug treatment facilities in Fort Madison that treat DWI clients only follow the instructions required by the courts and help offenders meet all the demands of their sentence and/or probation. In most instances clients will need to plead guilty to their charge, and will be randomly tested for drug and alcohol use, have to make restitution if there are any victims involved, and will be required to make frequent 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.
