DWI clients in rehab need to complete specific requirements to fulfill the conditions of their sentencing. Treatment programs that help satisfy these court requirements and terms, which are usually much more lenient than traditional sentencing such as large fines and jail time, are offered in Dawson to deliver alcohol education, therapy, and additional evaluation for individuals with heavy alcohol or drug problems.
Drug and Alcohol Education is an essential treatment tool used at rehabs treating DWI offenders. There are various levels of alcohol education and this can vary by state. Level I education classes usually consist of 12 hours of group education about the effects of alcohol and drugs. This is the what a person with a single conviction or someone under the age of 21 will ordinarily be required to complete. Level II classes would include both substance abuse education and group therapy in a program which is approved by the courts. How long an individual will have to participate in therapy depends upon certain factors, which can include how many DWI's the individual has had, and the seriousness of the violation. Most often individuals will be required to take the Level II DWI classes and therapy unless their blood-alcohol content was very low when they were arrested and there were no other significant infractions when the offender was arrested.
