DWI clients in rehab need specific requirements met to satisfy the terms of their court sentencing. Rehab programs that help fulfill these demands and conditions, which are typically more lenient than normal sentencing such as large fines and jail time, are offered in Foss to deliver educational services, therapy, and further assessment for serious substance abuse issues.
Education is an essential treatment tool used at rehab programs treating DWI clients. There are various levels of alcohol education classes which can differ by state. Level I education normally consist of 12 hours of group education related to the effects of drugs and/or alcohol. This is the what someone with a first offense or someone under the age of 21 will usually be required to complete. Level II DWI classes would include both education and group therapy at a court approved program. How long an individual will be required to participate in therapy depends upon a few considerations, which can include how many DWI's the person has had, and the severity of the violation. Most often individuals will be required to take the Level II classes and therapy except for when their blood-alcohol level was extremely low when they were arrested and there were no other serious infractions when the offender was arrested.
