DWI Clients Only - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - St. Elmo, IL.

There are treatment services available for DWI clients only, on account of the nature of their violation and the need to satisfy certain obligations deemed by the courts. If you're convicted of a non-violent substance abuse related offense, it is very likely that you could be given the chance to receive treatment in lieu of other penalties such as jail time. In most states, the alternatives to jail are rehabilitation programs which consist of alcohol classes, group meetings and therapy such as Alcoholics Anonymous and in some instances community service. Some states allow offenders to take part in the aforementioned sentences and upon complying with certain conditions are even allowed to drive their vehicle with an alcohol monitoring device installed in their car. There are programs that are inpatient and specifically treat DWI offenders. This will usually be something that is decided upon by the judge and usually proposed as an option by your attorney, if you are addicted to drugs or alcohol and this is only your first or sometimes second offense.

Substance abuse treatment programs in St. Elmo that treat DWI clients only abide by the instructions required by the courts and help clients meet all the requirements of their sentence and/or probation/parole. In most cases offenders will have to plead guilty to their charge, 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 frequent appearances and check in with the courts, their probation officer, etc. This sounds like a lot, but it is better than having to spend up to two years in jail.
