There are treatment services available for DWI clients only, on account of the nature of their offense and the requirement to meet certain requirements deemed by the legal system. If you've been charged with a non-violent substance abuse related offense, it is very likely that you may be granted the opportunity to receive rehabilitation as opposed to other consequences such as jail time. In most states, the alternatives to jail are rehabilitation programs which consist of alcohol abuse education, group meetings such as Alcoholics Anonymous and in some instances community service. Some states allow people to participate in the aforementioned consequences and upon complying with specific requirements are even granted permission to drive with an alcohol monitoring device installed in their car. There are rehab programs that are inpatient and specifically treat DWI clients. This will usually be something that is decided upon by the judge and very likely proposed as an alternative sentence by your attorney, if you are addicted to drugs or alcohol and this is your first offense.
Substance abuse rehabilitation programs in Manistee that treat DWI clients only follow the instructions required by the courts and help offenders comply with all the requirements of their sentence and/or parole. In most instances offenders will need to plead guilty to their charge, and will be regularly tested for substance use, have to make restitution if there are any victims involved, and be required to make regular appearances and check in with drug court, their probation officer, etc. This sounds like a lot, but it is better than spending up to two years in jail.
