There are treatment services offered for DWI clients only, due to the nature of their crime and the requirement to meet specific requirements deemed by the courts. If you've been charged with a non-violent drug or alcohol related crime, it is very possible that you may be given the opportunity to go to rehab in lieu of other penalties such as jail time. In most states, the alternatives to jail are treatment programs which include alcohol abuse education, group counseling such as Alcoholics Anonymous and in some instances community service. Some states allow people to participate in the aforementioned activities and upon complying with specific conditions are even granted permission to drive with a monitoring device in their car. There are rehab programs that are inpatient and cater specifically to DWI offenders. This would be something that would be determined by the judge and commonly presented as an option by your lawyer, if you are addicted to drugs or alcohol and this is only your first or second DWI charge.
Addiction recovery programs in Sidney that treat DWI clients only adhere to the guidelines set forth by the courts and help offenders comply with all the requirements of their sentence and/or probation/parole. In most instances clients will need to plead guilty to their charge, and will be frequently 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 probation officer, etc. This sounds like a lot, but it is better than spending up to two years in jail.
