Driving Under the Influence Services
Back to Programs
PHMC operates the Office of the DUI Coordinator (ODC) and works with a network of certified DUI Service Providers. As of 2004, all Driving Under the Influence (DUI) offenders are required to receive:
- A Court Reporting Network (CRN) evaluation to determine if there is a need for a more comprehensive substance use assessment.
- Alcohol Highway Safety School classes.
Once a participant meets all state-required criteria, they are eligible for restoration of driving privileges. The Clerk of Courts issues a court order compliance form to PennDOT (Department of Transportation) to process the request.
- Coordination of all state-required services, as determined at the pre-sentence hearing:
- CRN evaluation
- Assessment for substance use treatment
- Alcohol Highway Safety School classes
- Linkage to substance use treatment services
- Support on drivers’ license restoration
