DUI Program
The CORE Program is the only certified and licensed program in the 19th
Judicial Circuit approved by the Department of Highway Safety and Motor
Vehicles to provide DUI Levels 1 and 2 and assessment services.
Level 1 DUI Course
The Level 1 DUI course consists of twelve hours of substance abuse, traffic
law, Florida Statutes and local resource information. The focus of Level
1 is to provide the participant with educational information to help prevent
future problems with drinking and driving.
Level 2 DUI Course
The Level 2 DUI course consists of twenty-one hours of interactive education
in a small group setting. The class size is limited to fifteen participants.
Level 2 focuses on the problematic use of alcohol and other drugs and
prepares participants for attending counseling.
Evaluation & Assessment
Individualized substance abuse and driver risk assessments are completed
by certified evaluators. The evaluation consists of an individualized,
structured interview and the completion of the Driver Risk Inventory (DRI),
a computerized testing instrument. Evaluators compile data and may refer
the participant to counseling based on assessed risk factors and other
information gathered from the driver license, interview, DRI, arrest affidavit
and interview content. Referrals for counseling are made to agencies and
individuals licensed by Children and Family Services for substance abuse
treatment. Treatment agencies are required to provide feedback information
and documentation of completion to the DUI Program for all participants
who are referred for services.
