DWI Clients Only - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Thornton, IL.

There are treatment services accessible for DWI clients only, on account of the type of their violation and the need to carry out certain requirements demanded by the legal system. If you're convicted of a non-violent substance abuse related offense, it is very possible that you could be given the opportunity to go to rehab in lieu of other penalties such as jail time. In most states, the alternatives to jail are rehabilitation programs which include alcohol abuse education, group meetings and therapy such as Alcoholics Anonymous and in some cases community service. Some states allow people to participate in the above sentences and upon complying with certain requirements are even allowed to drive with a monitoring device installed in their vehicle. There are treatment facilities that are inpatient and cater specifically to DWI offenders. This will usually be something that would be decided upon by the judge and very likely presented as an alternative sentence by your attorney, if you are addicted to drugs or alcohol and it is your first offense.

Drug and Alcohol rehabilitation facilities in Thornton that treat DWI clients only follow the instructions demanded by the courts and help clients comply with all the demands of their sentence and/or parole. In most instances individuals will have to plead guilty to their offense, and will be frequently tested for drug and alcohol use, be required to make restitution if there are any victims involved, and be required to make regular appearances and check in with the courts, their probation/parole officer, etc. This sounds like a lot, but it is better than spending up to two years in jail.
