Utah DUI Substance Abuse Classes


I often get calls from people asking where they can get substance abuse counseling when they are being charged with a DUI.  If a person is convicted of a DUI, a person is required to have an evaluation to determine if a treatment is necessary.  I don’t think I have ever had a client convicted of a DUI and the evaluator did not recommend treatment.  It just cuts against the grain and common sense.  Some people have felt these classes are not about rehabilitation so much as money.  I disagree with that opinion and often recommend a client get into treatment before going to Court.  Whether we are contesting the charge or not, the treatment is relatively cheap and it can only help the person.  My theory is that an alcoholic is not necessarily a person who has to drink everyday.  My definition of an alcoholic is when alcohol begins to interfere with a person’s life regardless of how much or how often they drink.  Getting a DUI is definitely an interference with a person’s life.

There are a lot of great programs out there.  However, for the Courts and the DMV to recognize the class, it must be a State Certified "Prime for Life" class.  This web site is great to find classes all around the country and in a person’s own city.  I suggest you call them directly and verify that they are state certified and teach a class that is recognized by the Courts.  Hitting the continue reading button will give you a list of providers in the Ogden area.
