DWI Clients - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Scotland, SD.

DWI clients in treatment need to complete specific requirements to fulfill the conditions of their sentencing. Treatment facilities that help fulfill these court requirements and terms, which are usually far more lenient than regular sentencing such as large fines and jail time, are available in Scotland to deliver DWI classes, group counseling, and further evaluation for severe alcohol or drug issues.

Education is a primary treatment tool used at rehab programs catering to DWI clients. There are different levels of alcohol education and this can differ by state. Level I education typically include 12 hours of education related to the effects of alcohol and drugs. This is the what a person with a single conviction or someone under the age of 21 will commonly be required to do. Level II DWI classes would include both substance abuse education and group therapy in a program which is approved by the courts. The duration the person will be required to be in therapy depends on a few considerations, which can be, for example, the number of DWI's the individual has had, and the severity of the offense. In most cases, clients will be required to take the Level II classes and therapy except for when their blood-alcohol content was extremely low when they were arrested and there weren't any other serious infractions when the individual was arrested.
