There are treatment services accessible for DWI clients only, because of the nature of their violation and the requirement to fulfill certain obligations deemed by the legal system. If you've been convicted of a non-violent drug or alcohol related offense, it is very likely that you could be given the opportunity to receive treatment in lieu of other penalties such as jail time. In most states, the alternatives to jail are rehabilitation programs which include alcohol abuse education, group counseling such as AA and in some cases community service. Some states allow people to take part in the aforementioned sentences and upon complying with certain conditions are even allowed to drive with a monitoring device in their vehicle. There are programs that are inpatient and cater specifically to DWI clients. This will usually be something that would be determined by the judge and very likely proposed as an alternative sentence by your attorney, if you are addicted to drugs or alcohol and it is only your first offense.
Alcohol treatment programs in Ishpeming that treat DWI clients only abide by the guidelines set forth by the courts and help clients meet all the requirements of their sentence and/or probation. In most instances clients will need to plead guilty to their offense, and will be regularly tested for drug and alcohol 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 probation officer, etc. This sounds like a lot, but it is better than spending up to two years in jail.
