There are programs accessible for DWI clients only, because of the type of their crime and the requirement to carry out specific obligations deemed by the courts. If you're convicted of a non-violent substance abuse related offense, it is very possible that you may be given the chance to receive treatment as opposed to other consequences such as jail time. In most states, the alternatives to jail are rehab programs which include alcohol classes, group meetings and therapy such as Alcoholics Anonymous and in some instances community service. Some states allow people to take part in the above activities and upon complying with certain conditions are even granted permission to drive with a monitoring device in their vehicle. There are treatment facilities that are inpatient and specifically treat DWI offenders. This would be something that would be determined by the judge and very likely proposed as an option by your lawyer, if you are suffering with alcoholism and it is your first or second offense.
Addiction rehab facilities in Poplar Hills that treat DWI clients only adhere to the instructions demanded by the courts and help clients comply with all the requirements of their sentence and/or probation/parole. In most instances clients will have to plead guilty to their offense, and will be frequently 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.
