Driving with Care: Alcohol, Other Drugs, and Driving Safety Education-Strategies for Responsible Living by Kenneth W Wanberg

Driving with Care: Alcohol, Other Drugs, and Driving Safety Education-Strategies for Responsible Living by Kenneth W Wanberg

This is a 12-session, 24-hour education program for impaired driving offenders who have at least minimal indicators of past problems associated with AOD use or misuse and whose arrest BAC was at the impaired driving level. Level II Education helps clients to understand how problem behaviors are learned and how those behaviors are strengthened.  They develop a good understanding of their involvement in impaired driving and how their state laws apply to that involvement. Clients learn how their own AOD use fits clinically identified patterns and cycles of AOD use and misuse.  They develop strategies and skills to prevent future problems of use and misuse and involvement in DWI behavior: relapse and recidivism prevention.
