DWI Clients - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Erie, PA.

DWI clients in treatment need specific requirements met to fulfill the conditions of their sentencing. Rehab programs that help fulfill these requirements and conditions, which are typically much more lenient than traditional sentencing which would include heavy fines and jail time, are offered in Erie to provide educational services, therapy, and further evaluation for severe substance abuse issues.

Education is a primary tool used at rehab programs catering to DWI clients. There are a few different levels of alcohol education classes which can differ by state. Level I education generally consist of 12 hours of education about the effects and dangers of drugs and/or alcohol. This is the what someone with a first conviction or someone under 21 will usually be required to complete. Level II classes would consist of both substance abuse education and group therapy in a court approved program. The duration the individual will have to remain in therapy depends on a few factors, which can include the number of DWI's the person has had, and the severity of the offense. In most cases, clients will be required to take the Level II classes and therapy unless their blood-alcohol content level was extremely low when they were arrested and there were no other significant infractions when the individual was arrested.
