DWI Clients Only - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - St. Joseph, MO.

There are programs available for DWI clients only, due to the type of their offense and the need to meet specific requirements demanded by the legal system. If you're convicted of a non-violent drug or alcohol related offense, it is very likely that you will be granted the chance to go to rehabilitation instead of other penalties such as jail time. In most states, the alternatives to jail are treatment programs which include alcohol abuse education, group meetings such as Alcoholics Anonymous and in some cases community service. Some states allow people to take part in the aforementioned sentences and upon complying with specific requirements are even allowed to drive their vehicle with a monitoring device in their vehicle. There are treatment facilities that are inpatient and specifically treat DWI offenders. This would be something that would be decided upon by the judge and very likely presented as an option by your lawyer, if you are suffering with alcoholism and this is only your first offense.

Alcohol treatment facilities in St. Joseph that treat DWI clients only abide by the instructions required by the courts and help clients meet all the conditions of their sentence and/or probation/parole. In most cases clients will need to plead guilty to their charge, and will be regularly tested for substance use, have 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.
