Plenty of questions are raised regarding the handling of a DWI. Is alcohol treatment deserved over jail time spent? Is this a preposterous notion? some may question. To treat an alcoholic, who cannot seem to control their drinking, should be an option that has better results than a jail sentence. Though not many understand it, alcoholism is a body and mind affecting disease. To get a person to cease drinking through rehabilitation, whether long term or outpatient treatment, will provide better results than jail time. Since consequential thinking cannot overcome alcoholism, upon finishing jail time, some will resume drinking. Offered by the State of NY is a TASK program under which one may undergo treatment of alcoholism. The district attorney usually will provide this program through your attorney. TASK is a program that gives a person a chance to undergo treatment and recover from their alcoholism. It will let them recover, having a better chance not to drink and drive, rather than sitting out a jail sentence and not recovering from this fatal disease. TASK will usually be a 12 to 18 month program. It monitors the person closely while referring them to an outpatient or inpatient program.
