1 MISSION STATEMENT The mission of the Boone County Adult DWI Court Program is to increase public safety by providing effective treatment and enhanced Court supervision to high risk DWI offenders. The goal is to reduce drunk driving and promote a sober lifestyle, rich in recovery. 1

2 THIRTEENTH JUDICIAL CIRCUIT ADULT DWI COURT PROGRAM DWI Court Program Overview The Boone County DWI Court Program is a court-supervised program which accepts post-plea DWI prior offenders. The DWI Court Program is voluntary and is part of the terms of an individual s probation. All participants have been determined to require substance abuse treatment and are felony offenders. Participation includes regular court appearances before the DWI Court judge. Treatment, which includes drug testing, alcohol testing, individual counseling and group counseling, is provided through Phoenix Programs, Inc. The participant is also expected to obtain and maintain employment or involvement in vocational or educational programs and maintain regular attendance at 12-step meetings (Narcotics Anonymous or Alcoholics Anonymous). The length of the DWI Court Program is determined by each participant s progress and will be a minimum of one year and no longer than two years. DWI Court Supervision A DWI Court participant will be required to appear in DWI Court on a regular basis. At each appearance, the judge will be given a progress report prepared by the treatment team regarding drug test results, attendance and participation in treatment, and compliance with the tracker/treatment court administrator. The judge may ask the participant questions about his/her progress, and discuss any specific problems the participant may have been experiencing. If doing well, the participant will be encouraged to continue with the program and work with the treatment team toward graduation. If not doing well, the judge will discuss these issues with the participant and the treatment team and determine further action. In the event of program violations, e.g., missed, late, dilute or dirty urine screens, failure to attend individual or group counseling, failure to attend 12-step meetings, etc., sanctions may be imposed by the DWI Court. Repeated violation of the program expectations and failure to progress satisfactorily may result in termination from the program. Failure to appear in court on the date and time scheduled may result in a warrant being issued for the participant s arrest. If a participant cannot appear in court as scheduled, the DWI treatment court administrator must be notified as soon as possible; however, such notification should not be viewed as a waiver of the expectation to attend. 2

4 DWI COURT PROGRAM RULES All DWI Court participants must abide by the following rules. Each individual is held accountable for their actions and full compliance is necessary to succeed in the program. I must not use or possess any drugs or alcohol. This condition is fundamental to successful completion of the program. Any prescription medication must be reported to the DWI team for review. Abuse of prescription drugs will result in a sanction. (This also includes ANY synthetic substance: Any substance which is mood/mind altering is prohibited in the program. Such products as K2, Spice, or Bath Salts are prohibited and tested for. If you are unsure about the product, contact your DWI court administrator or probation officer. (Also see Alternative Sentencing Court Urine Testing Contract). I must maintain my residence in Boone County through the length of the program. I must follow my treatment plan as directed by program personnel. I understand that my treatment groups, counseling sessions, probation meetings, court appearances, etc., are not optional. I also understand if I am not attending treatment, I will no longer be eligible for the program. I must not violate the law, and understand that if I engage in any criminal act, I will be prosecuted for the charges pending against me. I understand a new misdemeanor can get me discharged from the program but a new felony will automatically terminate me from the program. I understand that operating a motor vehicle without a valid driver s license or while the driver s license is suspended or revoked is a violation of the law and may result in sanctions or termination even if criminal charges are not filed against me. I must get prior permission from the DWI Court team before moving, changing my telephone number, or disconnecting my telephone. I must get prior permission from the DWI Court team regarding my employment. DWI Court participants are prohibited from working in bars or in any employment deemed not appropriate by the DWI Court team. Participants understand that all employment must be approved prior to a participant entering the program or before accepting employment once in the program. Participants also must gain prior permission from the DWI Court team before quitting a job. 4

5 If restitution is owed, I must pay this amount in full as ordered by the court. I must not use any medication without prior consent. All over-the-counter or prescribed medication must be authorized prior to being taken. Participants are strictly prohibited from taking over-the-counter medications other than the ones found on the approved medication list provided in this manual. I must not enter establishments in which the primary function is the sale of alcohol or gambling. Casinos, grocery store liquor sections, bars or packaged liquor stores are off limits. You may not purchase liquor for any reason. I must attend all court sessions as directed by the DWI Court judge. If you are not in court as directed a warrant will be issued for your arrest. I must attend all treatment sessions. If a participant is unable to attend a scheduled session, he/she must contact the treatment counselor before a session is missed. This includes individual and group counseling, educational sessions, and other treatment as directed. Unexcused missed treatment sessions will result in a sanction. I must report to my probation officer, tracker, and treatment providers as directed. If unable to make an appointment, contact the probation officer and/or caseworker immediately. Participants are REQUIRED to bring their calendars to all appointments related to DWI Court, including classes, appointments with any team members, probation appointments, etc. Calendars should be filled out as far in advance as possible. As a participant in DWI Court, I understand that I have the responsibility to report to a tracker as directed. Once a tracker has called, it is your responsibility to contact them within a half an hour if they were unable to reach you. (If you fail to do so, this will be considered a missed contact and a sanction will occur). I further understand that tracking may occur 24 hours a day/7days a week, and I may be given a curfew if the court deems appropriate. 5

6 I must be on time to appointments with treatment providers, trackers, treatment court administrator, probation officers and the court as directed. If a participant is late, he/she may not be allowed to attend the appointment and could be considered non-compliant. Contact your provider if there is a possibility that you may be late. I understand that I can not make threats towards other participants or staff or act in a violent manner. Violent, dishonest, or inappropriate behavior will not be tolerated and will be reported to the Court. This may result in termination from DWI Court. I must dress appropriately for court, probation meetings, and treatment sessions. Clothing bearing drug or alcohol related themes or promoting or advertising alcohol or drug use is considered inappropriate. Sunglasses, hats and bandanas are not to be worn inside the courthouse, treatment center, or probation office. Also, turn off all cell phones or other electronic devices prior to court appearances, probation meetings or treatment sessions. I must always tell the truth. This will take the participant s best effort and truthfulness. Participants who are not truthful will not be allowed to remain in the program. I must not leave the county without permission. You must get permission from the DWI Court judge prior to leaving Boone County. You must apply for a travel permit with your probation officer/treatment provider in order to gain written approval from the judge. Travel permits require a 15-day processing period. It is your responsibility to apply for the permit in a timely manner. I must turn in all documents one (1) day prior to court appearances. In order to receive credit for AA/NA meetings, payment of fees, or community service work completed, a participant must turn the proper documentation into their probation officer no later than the day prior to their court appearance. In order to receive credit for attending treatment a participant must turn the proper documentation into their caseworker as directed. 6

7 I must submit to urinalysis and/or breath tests as requested. You will be tested throughout the entire program for substance abuse and/or medication compliance. The DWI Court judge or any team member may require a test at any time and will have access to all drug testing results including any stalls or failures to produce. Failing to report for a drug test, appearing late to submit to a urine test, and/or altering a specimen will be treated as violations. One of the goals of DWI Court is to help you achieve total abstinence from alcohol, inappropriately used prescriptions, over-the-counter medication, and illicit drugs. I must report for testing upon contact with law enforcement. You must report for a drug test after contact with a law enforcement officer. I must maintain confidentiality of other DWI Court participants. Treatment cannot succeed unless all participants maintain the confidentiality of other participants and of information disclosed in treatment. DWI Court participants with substance use disorders are required to disclose their substance use disorder to all health care professionals they see for any reason. DWI Court participants should request non-narcotic medications when possible. Participants who use emergency room/emergency department services are required to get permission in advance, if possible. After going to the E.R./E.D., participants are required to provide the DWI Court team with all documentation relative to the condition for which they were treated. Participants must provide DWI Court staff with copies of all medical bills, whether related to the E.R./E.D. and/or other health care providers. Participants are required to provide proof of contact with health care professionals, as well as proof that they have disclosed their substance use disorder to their health care professionals. (See Physician Release forms provided in this manual). All medications prescribed MUST BE APPROVED BY THE DWI COURT BEFORE THEY ARE TAKEN. 7

8 DWI COURT TREATMENT Drug Testing: Each participant is given a drug testing hotline card with a unique call-in code. Participants are to call the hotline daily, enter their unique call-in code, and enter the first four letters of their last name. After successfully entering the required information, participants will be advised a drug testing sample is scheduled for that day or a sample is not scheduled for that day. When the participant is directed to provide a sample, they will be given from 6:00 a.m. until 10:00 a.m. to submit to testing. Arrowhead provides drug testing collection for all Boone County Treatment Courts. Counseling: An important aspect of the DWI Court is participation in counseling at Phoenix Programs, Inc., at 90 East Leslie Lane. Each participant is given an assessment screening at the minimum cost of $499.00, which is due at the time of the screening. The treatment provider will then recommend group and/or individual counseling. Attendance at these counseling sessions will be reported to the judge as part of a participant s progress report. Prior permission from the treatment counselor must be obtained in order to be excused from a counseling session. Phoenix Programs, Inc. A minimum of a $ Supplemental Fee and a $ East Leslie Lane Program fee is due at the time of your assessment Columbia, MO screening. The fee is based on your income, using a sliding (573) scale. Please bring a money order or credit card to pay for the screening charge. Twelve Step Meetings: Attendance is encouraged at 12-step meetings such as Narcotics Anonymous and Alcoholics Anonymous. Attendance is an important part of the recovery process that helps familiarize the participant with the 12-step philosophy and to develop levels of trust to learn and create social bonds with other people in recovery. The treatment team will provide information regarding the time and location of 12-step meetings and/or online classes. The participant must provide proof of attendance to their probation officer prior to each court appearance. 8

9 Sponsor: The participant is encouraged to obtain a self-help sponsor. A sponsor is a 12-step group member of the same gender with significant sobriety (at least one year) who assists the participant on a personal level with sobriety, personal problems, working the steps, etc. Ask at a meeting for a temporary sponsor until a permanent one can be obtained. 9

10 Personal Journal: Upon acceptance into DWI Court, all clients will be expected to keep a journal. The DWI Court judge will provide each participant with a weekly topic for the journal entry. The purpose of the journal is to provide the Judge with each participant s personal perception of DWI Court related topics, including personal problems with alcohol and drug dependence, and short-term and long-term goals. The court will provide a journal to each participant at the first court appearance. The journal must be brought to every court appearance. DWI Court Fees: Each DWI Court participant will be required to pay a monthly DWI Court fee in the amount of $ while participating in the program. The first payment is due 30 days after the participant s admission date. Participants are expected to maintain a zero ($0.00) balance. Sanctions for non-payment of fees may be imposed. A card with your account number is given to each participant at admission. Please present this card to the accounting clerk every time you need to make a payment. Termination A DWI Court participant may be terminated from the program for the following reasons which include but are not limited to: lack of treatment progress as decided by the treatment team, failure to secure full time employment, failure to pay fees or fines, threats, assaults, new arrests, continued substance use, or medical problems that interfere with treatment. Sixty-Day Evaluations: The DWI Court team will conduct a sixty-day evaluation of every participant on the first court date after the participant has been in the program sixty days. During this evaluation the DWI Court team will decide whether or not the participant has made the necessary progress to be engaged in the program. The evaluation will measure the participant s treatment progress and understanding, work and/or education progress, as well as the participant s acceptance of the DWI Court philosophy. 10
