There are rehab programs offered for DWI clients only, due to the type of their violation and the requirement to satisfy specific obligations deemed by the courts. If you've been convicted of a non-violent drug related offense, it is very possible 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 treatment programs which include classes, group meetings such as Alcoholics Anonymous and in some cases community service. Some states allow people to participate in the above consequences and upon meeting specific conditions are even allowed to drive their vehicle with a monitoring device installed in their vehicle. There are programs that are inpatient and cater specifically to DWI offenders. This would be something that is determined by the judge and very likely proposed as an option by your lawyer, if you are suffering with alcoholism and it is your first or second offense.
Substance abuse recovery facilities in Lamy that treat DWI clients only follow the guidelines set forth by the courts and help offenders meet all the requirements of their sentence and/or probation/parole. In most cases individuals will need to plead guilty to their charge, and will be frequently 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 drug court, their probation officer, etc. This sounds like a lot, but it is better than having to spend up to two years in jail.
