Any person convicted of a DUI in Georgia, or a licensed Georgia driver who gets a DUI in another state must:
1. Successfully complete a Department of Drivers Services (DDS) approved DUI Alcohol or Drug Use Risk Reduction Program (DUI School)
2. Undergo a Clinical Evaluation and, if recommended
3. Complete a Substance Abuse Treatment Program
A Clinical Evaluation is an assessment conducted by a DBHDD approved professional who is certified in the field of addiction. You must select a Clinical Evaluator from the DBHDD approved list.*
Based on their professional findings, the Clinical Evaluator may recommend treatment. Treatment means attendance and participation in the type of program recommended by the Evaluator. Be sure you attend a DBHDD approved treatment program.*
*There is a list of approved evaluators and treatment providers in Fayette and Coweta counties on the information shelf in the LifeSwitch classroom or ask your instructor. You can see a list for the entire state by following the link below and selecting “Search Registry Listing.”
