An approach for the judicial system to reduce the influence of drug and alcohol abuse on crime
What is a 24/7 Sobriety Program ? A court ordered alcohol and drug testing management tool designed to deal with problem drinkers/drug users. The goal of the program is to enhance behavior modification of the participant, reduce jail costs, reduce DUI recidivism, and increase public safety within your community; Requires those arrested for or convicted of a second or subsequent violation of RCW 46.61.502/504 (DUI) to abstain from alcohol and drugs, take twice-a-day on-site breath tests, use a remote electronic alcohol monitoring device, or submit to urinalysis testing. All testing fees are paid by the participant and the majority of the funds collected are retained by the local jurisdiction. Serves as an alternative to incarceration or in addition to other court ordered activities, is cost effective, allows participants to work and remain in the community, drive if eligible, care for their families and stay out of the criminal justice system by changing their behaviors; Violation of program rules leads to predetermined, swift and certain sanctions.
