DWI Clients - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - California, PA.

DWI clients in treatment need specific requirements met to fulfill the conditions of their court sentencing. Rehab facilities that help fulfill these requirements and terms, which are usually far more lenient than regular sentencing such as large fines and incarceration, are available in California to provide alcohol education, counseling, and further evaluation for severe drug or alcohol issues.

Education is a fundamental tool used at rehabs catering to DWI clients. There are different levels of alcohol education which can vary by state. Level I education normally include 12 hours of education related to the effects of drugs and/or alcohol. This is the what a person with a single offense or someone under the age of 21 will usually be required to do. 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 need to participate in therapy depends upon a few considerations, which can be, for example, how many DWI's the individual has had, and the seriousness of the violation. In most cases, individuals will be sentenced to the Level II DWI classes and therapy except for when their blood-alcohol level was extremely low when they were stopped and there were no other significant infractions when the offender was arrested.
