About the Program
Our Alcohol and Drug Education Program is a 6-week course designed to provide a supportive and informative environment for individuals in Jefferson Parish facing their first offense DWI/DUI, Possession of Marijuana, or other drug-related charges. With a focus on reflection, decision-making, and stress management, our weekly sessions aim to guide participants toward restorative growth and long-term resilience.
In addition to the six-week program, some participants may be required to complete a one-time, three-hour Restorative Group Session. This session addresses substance use awareness, accountability, safe decision-making, and moving forward post diversion program. The Restorative Group Session may be required based on your charge, the court's requirements and/or referral guidelines.
