There are programs offered for DWI clients only, on account of the type of their violation and the need to meet specific requirements demanded by the courts. If you've been convicted of a non-violent drug or alcohol related offense, it is very likely that you could be given the chance 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 classes, group meetings such as AA and in some instances community service. Some states allow offenders to participate in the above sentences and upon meeting certain requirements are even allowed to drive their vehicle with an alcohol monitoring device installed in their vehicle. There are treatment facilities that are inpatient and cater specifically to DWI offenders. This would be something that would be decided upon by the judge and usually presented as an option by your attorney, if you are suffering with alcoholism and this is only your first or sometimes second offense.
Substance abuse rehab facilities in Long Lake that treat DWI clients only follow the guidelines set forth by the courts and help clients meet all the requirements of their sentence and/or parole. In most instances individuals 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 will 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.
