How can we help today?

OVERVIEW

If you have received a DUI and have been sentenced, or have yet to receive your sentence, our DUI Program is for you!  If you need to complete DUI classes for the DMV we can also help with that.

We currently offer classes online via Zoom. Links to attend each group will be emailed to each participant upon enrollment.  

Recovery Resources is licensed by the State of Colorado to offer DUI Education and DUI Therapy. Recovery Resources utilizes the state-approved Change Companies curriculum. 

Step-by-Step Process

Your first step to begin DUI classes is to complete your intake application online using our HIPAA-compliant intake system. Then schedule an intake appointment with our DUI Coordinator. Then you will pay the DUI Program intake fee. After your assessment, you’ll be placed with one of our weekly DUI Education or Therapy groups to begin your classes.

FAQs

  • Level I Education consists of 12 hours of alcohol and drug education over a minimum of 3 sessions, unless an alcohol evaluator determines more hours are required. Typically conducted in a group or class, Level I Education is only appropriate for someone who has had one impaired driving offense, and a low BAC. (.05 to .079)

  • Level II Education consists of 24 hours of DUI education over a 12 week period. Education classes are conducted on an outpatient basis in a group setting with weekly two-hour sessions. Over the 12 week period, clients attend one two-hour class per week. Class size is limited to no more than 12 regularly attending participants. Level II Education can be recommended by itself or may be followed by Level II Therapy.

  • When Level II Therapy is required, it typically follows Level II Education. Clients will receive a specific Level II Therapy track assignment from their alcohol evaluator. Track assignments range in length from 6 to 11 months or more depending on assessed clinical severity indicators, previous DUI/DWAI offenses and BAC at time of arrest. As with Level II Education, Level II Therapy is conducted on an outpatient basis in weekly two-hour sessions.
