There are programs available for DWI clients only, because of the type of their crime and the requirement to carry out certain requirements deemed by the courts. If you're charged with a non-violent substance abuse related crime, it is very likely that you may be granted the opportunity to receive treatment as opposed to other consequences such as jail time. In most states, the alternatives to jail are rehab programs which consist of classes, group meetings such as AA and in some instances community service. Some states allow offenders to participate in the aforementioned consequences and upon meeting certain requirements are even granted permission to drive their vehicle with a monitoring device installed in their vehicle. There are programs that are inpatient and specifically treat DWI offenders. This will usually be something that is decided upon by the judge and usually presented as an option by your lawyer, if you are addicted to drugs or alcohol and it is your first or second offense.
Alcohol rehabilitation facilities in Sault Ste. Marie that treat DWI clients only abide by the instructions required by the courts and help offenders meet all the conditions of their sentence and/or probation/parole. In most cases offenders will have to plead guilty to their charge, 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.
