DUI/DWI offenders in Grand Forks frequently find that they are dealt severe punishment due to their DUI or DWI which could include incarceration and other penalties which can affect them for a long time to come. Instead of of these penalties or to lessen some of them, many DUI/DWI offenders are offered or even court ordered to take part in a Grand Forks drug rehab facility to handle their issues with drugs or alcohol abuse. Court ordering or making the recommendation that DUI/DWI offenders take part in drug rehab has proven effective not only in handling problems regarding drug addiction but also in keeping them out of the criminal justice system for good. A great number of DUI/DWI offenders that are given this opportunity become rehabbed, which has a great effect not only on the individual in treatment but on the court system and society itself.
