DWI clients in rehab need to complete specific requirements to fulfill the terms of their sentencing. Treatment programs that help fulfill these court requirements and terms, which are typically more lenient than traditional sentencing which would include steep fines and jail time, are available in Mooseheart to deliver educational services, therapy, and further assessment for individuals with heavy drug or alcohol problems.
Education is a primary treatment tool used at rehab programs catering to DWI offenders. There are various levels of alcohol education classes which can differ by state. Level I education normally consist of 12 hours of education related to the effects of alcohol and drugs. This is the what a person with a first conviction or someone under 21 will usually be required to complete. Level II classes would consist of both substance abuse education and group therapy in a program which is approved by the courts. The duration the person will be required to participate in therapy depends upon certain factors, which can be, for example, how many DWI's the individual has had, and the severity of the offense. In most cases, clients will be required to take the Level II DWI classes and therapy unless their blood-alcohol content level was very low when they were arrested and there weren't any other significant infractions when the individual was arrested.
