There are programs offered for DWI clients only, due to the type of their violation and the need to satisfy specific requirements deemed by the courts. If you're charged with a non-violent drug related offense, it is very possible that you could be given the opportunity to go to rehab as opposed to other penalties such as jail time. In most states, the alternatives to jail are rehabilitation programs which include alcohol classes, group meetings such as Alcoholics Anonymous and in some instances community service. Some states allow people to participate in the aforementioned activities and upon meeting certain requirements are even allowed to drive with an alcohol monitoring device in their vehicle. There are treatment facilities that are inpatient and cater specifically to DWI clients. This will usually be something that is decided upon by the judge and very likely proposed as an option by your attorney, if you are addicted to drugs or alcohol and this is only your first or sometimes second offense.
Substance abuse treatment facilities in Dunbar that treat DWI clients only follow the guidelines demanded by the courts and help offenders meet all the demands of their sentence and/or probation/parole. In most cases offenders will have to plead guilty to their charge, and will be regularly 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 drug court, their probation/parole officer, etc. This sounds like a lot, but it is better than having to spend up to two years in jail.
