There are rehab programs available for DWI clients only, because of the nature of their offense and the need to satisfy specific requirements deemed by the courts. If you're convicted of a non-violent substance abuse related offense, it is very likely that you could be given the chance to go to rehab in lieu of other penalties such as jail time. In most states, the alternatives to jail are recovery programs which consist of alcohol abuse education, group meetings and therapy such as AA and in some cases community service. Some states allow offenders to participate in the above activities and upon complying with certain conditions are even granted permission to drive with a monitoring device installed in their vehicle. There are treatment facilities that are inpatient and specifically treat DWI clients. This would be something that is determined by the judge and very likely proposed as a solution by your attorney, if you are suffering with alcoholism and this is your first or sometimes second offense.
Substance abuse rehab facilities in Bangor that treat DWI clients only follow the guidelines required by the courts and help clients meet all the conditions of their sentence and/or probation. In most instances individuals will have to plead guilty to their offense, and will be randomly tested for drug and alcohol use, be required to make restitution if there are any victims involved, and 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 spending up to two years in jail.
