There are treatment services offered for DWI clients only, due to the type of their violation and the need to fulfill certain requirements deemed by the legal system. If you've been convicted of a non-violent drug related offense, it is very possible that you may be given the opportunity to receive rehabilitation as opposed to other consequences such as jail time. In most states, the alternatives to jail are recovery programs which consist of alcohol classes, group meetings and therapy such as AA and in some cases community service. Some states allow offenders to take part in the aforementioned activities and upon complying with certain requirements are even granted permission to drive their vehicle with an alcohol monitoring device in their vehicle. There are rehab programs that are inpatient and specifically treat DWI clients. This will usually be something that would be determined by the judge and very likely proposed as an alternative sentence by your lawyer, if you are suffering with alcoholism and this is your first or second offense.
Alcohol recovery facilities in Escanaba that treat DWI clients only follow the guidelines demanded by the courts and help clients meet all the conditions of their sentence and/or probation. In most cases clients will have to plead guilty to their charge, and will be regularly tested for drug and alcohol use, be required to make restitution if there are any victims involved, and be required to make regular 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.
