There are rehab programs accessible for DWI clients only, because of the nature of their offense and the need to satisfy specific requirements demanded by the legal system. If you've been convicted of a non-violent drug or alcohol related crime, it is very possible that you may be granted the chance 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 classes, group counseling such as AA and in some instances community service. Some states allow offenders to take part in the aforementioned sentences and upon complying with specific requirements are even allowed to drive their vehicle with a monitoring device in their vehicle. There are treatment facilities that are inpatient and cater specifically to DWI offenders. This would be something that is determined by the judge and very likely presented as an alternative sentence by your attorney, if you are suffering with alcoholism and it is only your first DWI charge.
Substance abuse rehabilitation programs in Sault St.e Marie that treat DWI clients only adhere to the guidelines required by the courts and help offenders comply with all the requirements of their sentence and/or probation/parole. In most instances clients will need to plead guilty to their offense, and will be regularly tested for substance use, be required to make restitution if there are any victims involved, and be required to make regular appearances and check in with the courts, their probation officer, etc. This sounds like a lot, but it is better than having to spend up to two years in jail.
