Supporting Clients with DUI Legal Requirements

All DUI services are provided through telehealth, making it easier for clients to access and complete required programs. Options include a 10-hour risk education course for minimal, moderate, and significant risk levels, as well as early intervention for moderate risk, outpatient treatment for significant risk, and intensive outpatient treatment for high risk when clinically appropriate.

Flexible Levels of Care Meet Real-Life Schedules

Outpatient programming is available mornings, afternoons, and evenings to fit work or family schedules. Services include individual and family counseling, group treatment, peer-led groups, and aftercare. Clients can move between regular outpatient, intensive outpatient, and continuing care groups depending on their needs. Residential programs are available for those needing higher levels of support.
