There are treatment services available for DWI clients only, because of the nature of their crime and the requirement to carry out specific obligations demanded by the courts. If you've been convicted of a non-violent substance abuse related crime, it is very likely that you could be granted the chance to receive treatment instead of other consequences such as jail time. In most states, the alternatives to jail are recovery programs which include alcohol classes, group meetings such as AA and in some cases community service. Some states allow people to take part in the above consequences and upon complying with specific requirements are even allowed to drive their vehicle with an alcohol monitoring device installed in their car. There are programs that are inpatient and cater specifically to DWI clients. This will usually be something that would be decided upon by the judge and commonly proposed as an alternative sentence by your lawyer, if you are addicted to drugs or alcohol and it is your first or sometimes second offense.
Addiction rehabilitation facilities in San Carlos that treat DWI clients only abide by the instructions demanded by the courts and help clients comply with all the requirements of their sentence and/or probation. In most instances individuals will need to plead guilty to their offense, and will be regularly tested for substance use, be required to make restitution if there are any victims involved, and will be required to make regular appearances and check in with drug court, their parole officer, etc. This sounds like a lot, but it is better than spending up to two years in jail.
