There are treatment services available for DWI clients only, because of the nature of their offense and the need to meet certain requirements demanded by the courts. If you've been charged with a non-violent drug or alcohol related crime, it is very likely that you may be granted the chance to receive treatment in lieu of other penalties such as jail time. In most states, the alternatives to jail are recovery programs which consist of classes, group meetings and therapy such as AA and in some cases community service. Some states allow people to participate in the aforementioned sentences and upon complying with certain conditions are even granted permission to drive with a monitoring device in their car. There are rehab programs that are inpatient and cater specifically to DWI offenders. This will usually be something that is decided upon by the judge and usually presented as an alternative sentence by your lawyer, if you are addicted to drugs or alcohol and this is only your first or second DWI charge.
Drug and Alcohol rehab programs in Lake George that treat DWI clients only abide by the guidelines required by the courts and help clients meet all the requirements of their sentence and/or parole. In most cases offenders 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 are 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 spending up to two years in jail.
