Drug Alcohol Safety Education Program

The Drug and Alcohol Safety Education Program (DASEP) is for persons who plead guilty or are found guilty of Driving While Intoxicated (DWI), Driving Under the Influence (DUI), Refusal to Submit and other alcohol and drug offenses as ordered by the court. The DASEP provides assessment, referral and educational services throughout the ten-county catchment area.

HRA staff is present at court sessions throughout the area to conduct pre-sentence screening reports on offenders, prior to their being sentenced, with the purpose of determining the appropriate level of education or treatment. Referral assistance is provided as needed to other agencies or programs.

Court ordered, educational classes are held on a regular basis within the area and consist of a minimum of ten (10) hours of instruction. The course fee is $150 and is due prior to the beginning of the first class.
