DWI Clients - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Pittsfield, MA.

DWI clients in rehab need specific requirements met to satisfy the conditions of their court sentencing. Treatment facilities which help satisfy these court requirements and terms, which are usually far more lenient than regular sentencing which would include heavy fines and jail time, are offered in Pittsfield to provide alcohol education, group counseling, and additional assessment for severe drug or alcohol issues.

Education is an essential treatment tool used at rehabs treating DWI clients. There are a few different levels of alcohol education classes which can differ by state. Level I education classes typically include 12 hours of education related to the effects of alcohol and drugs. This is the what someone with a first conviction or someone under the age of 21 will commonly be required to do. Level II courses would include both education and therapy at a program which is approved by the courts. The duration the individual will have to remain in therapy depends on a few considerations, which can be, for example, the number of DWI's the person has had, and the seriousness of the offense. Most often clients will be sentenced to the Level II classes and therapy except for when their blood-alcohol content level was very low when they were arrested and there weren't any other significant charges when the person was arrested.
