There are treatment services offered for DWI clients only, due to the type of their crime and the need to fulfill specific obligations demanded by the legal system. If you've been charged with a non-violent substance abuse related crime, it is very possible that you could be given the chance to receive rehabilitation as opposed to other penalties such as jail time. In most states, the alternatives to jail are recovery programs which include 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 granted permission to drive their vehicle with a monitoring device installed in their vehicle. There are programs that are inpatient and specifically treat DWI clients. This would be something that is determined by the judge and usually presented as an option by your lawyer, if you are suffering with alcoholism and this is only your first or second DWI charge.
Drug and Alcohol rehabilitation programs in Smithland that treat DWI clients only abide by the instructions demanded by the courts and help offenders comply with all the demands of their sentence and/or probation. In most instances offenders will have to plead guilty to their charge, and will be regularly tested for substance use, be required to make restitution if there are any victims involved, and will be required to make frequent appearances and check in with the courts, their parole officer, etc. This sounds like a lot, but it is better than having to spend up to two years in jail.
