Driving Under the Influence Treatment Court (DUI-TC)
The Driving Under the Influence Treatment Court (DUI-TC) is a highly structured program that combines periods of incarceration, community-based treatment, probation and judicial supervision.
PHMC coordinates services for the community-based treatment component of the DUI-TC program. This court-run program includes four phases and takes one year to complete. The program’s goal is to address the participants’ substance use disorder through treatment.
Once a participant successfully completes the program, court supervision ends. Participants are not eligible to have their records expunged.
