Alcohol and Substance Abuse Programs
Court-Approved Treatment Options for Legal and Personal Recovery

What Are Alcohol and Substance Abuse Programs?
An alcohol and substance abuse program is a focused, structured intervention designed to address the problematic use of alcohol, prescription medications, and illicit substances in a single-day format. These intensive programs are ideal for individuals needing to meet legal, employment, or family-related requirements while receiving meaningful education and therapeutic support. Whether due to a DUI/DWI charge, a public intoxication offense, or workplace policy violation, many individuals are mandated to complete a certified program to demonstrate accountability and reduce the risk of future incidents.
At Court Counseling Institute (CCI), we specialize in providing professional, court-approved alcohol and substance abuse programs that meet the specific requirements of courts, probation officers, legal counsel, and employers across the United States and Canada. These programs are carefully tailored for individuals referred for substance-related offenses or concerns, and are frequently used to satisfy mandates from criminal courts, family courts, or workplace compliance departments.
Our alcohol and substance abuse programs are evidence-based and facilitated by licensed clinicians with expertise in substance use treatment and legal system navigation. Though brief in duration, each program is packed with essential components: education on the physical and legal risks of substance use, therapeutic exercises to build insight, and strategies for reducing relapse risk. Participants leave with a deeper understanding of their behaviors, clear documentation of program completion, and tools to support healthier decision-making.
By combining legal accountability, clinical best practices, and a compassionate approach, CCI’s alcohol and substance abuse programs help participants meet their obligations and take the first step toward meaningful, lasting change.
