Substance Abuse and Addiction Wall Street Journal Highlights DWI/Drug Courts

As featured on the front page of the Marketplace section of the Wall Street Journal, Wednesday April 7, 2004: DWI Court Treatment Programs In U.S. Show Signs of Helping Drunk Drivers to Sober Up

Since 1999, the National Drug Court Institute (NDCI), the National Association of Drug Court Professionals (NADCP) board committee on DWI/Drug Courts and a handful of DWI/Drug Courts throughout the nation have led the charge to bring to bear the successful drug court model dealing with impaired driving. However, it wasn't until NDCI and NADCP partnered with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and the Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA) on this issue that real momentum occurred. An example of that momentum can be found in today's Wall Street Journal where journalist Karen Lundegaard highlights Judge Harvey Hoffman, presiding judge of the Charlotte, Michigan DWI/Drug Court and provides an in-depth look into the proliferation of DWI Courts across the country. Based on the drug court model, DWI Courts recognize the danger of drunk drivers as human landmines who can kill entire families with a left turn. Born out of this potential catastrophic reality of dealing with repeat impaired drivers comes a court response that not only seeks unparalleled community supervision, but also effective treatment to address the underlying substance abuse and addiction.

DUI / DWI laws vary from state to state, and cases are handled differently in different areas within a state. That's why it is so important to find an experienced DUI defense lawyer near you. Click here to find one now.
