There are programs offered for DWI clients only, on account of the nature of their violation and the need to fulfill specific obligations deemed by the courts. If you're convicted of a non-violent substance abuse related offense, it is very likely that you will be granted the opportunity to receive rehabilitation instead of other penalties such as jail time. In most states, the alternatives to jail are rehabilitation 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 above activities and upon complying with certain conditions are even allowed to drive their vehicle with a monitoring device in their vehicle. There are treatment facilities that are inpatient and cater specifically to DWI clients. This would be something that would be determined by the judge and commonly proposed as an alternative sentence by your lawyer, if you are suffering with alcoholism and it is your first offense.
Alcohol treatment facilities in Sheldahl that treat DWI clients only adhere to the instructions set forth by the courts and help offenders meet all the conditions of their sentence and/or parole. In most cases individuals will have to plead guilty to their charge, and will be regularly tested for substance use, have to make restitution if there are any victims involved, and be required to make regular appearances and check in with drug court, their parole officer, etc. This sounds like a lot, but it is better than having to spend up to two years in jail.
